What about when you go to google.com? In their search box, how do you delete that list? Will this do the same or is it only for the computer side?

What you see they have already store, archived, and profiled you off of.. thats what they are paid to do.

If you have a google account with anything, then you should be more worried.. but just search history.. eh.. no huuuge deal..

The list will not show at Google if you disable autocomplete.
At least that's how it works on my computer

If you are running FireFox you can simpy right click in the search field.
Select "Clear search history"
