Search Through Browsing History Easier in Chrome



Are you looking for an easier way to search through your browsing history? Then you may want to have a look at the History Calendar extension. History Calendar allows you to search and display entries by date using the floating calendar added to your History Page.

If you have a lot of history entries but can not remember the exact details about a website, then this great little extension lets you quickly narrow it down to the date you visited the site. From there you can quickly look through the entries for that day only to find what you are looking for.

Are you tired of downloads displaying in a separate window when using Firefox? Then say goodbye to that extra window and shift it over to a tab with the Downloads in Tab extension.

Here are the options for the extension. You can switch it back over to the separate window when needed and control how your shiny new downloads tab works. Very nice.

1.Firstly open a blank Notepad file.
2. Now write .LOG as the first line in the file, then press enter. Now save the file and close it.
3.Open the notepad file now and you will find that the current date and time has been

appended (put) at the end and the cursor is in the next line.
4. Type your notes and then save and close the file.

5. Each time you open the file, Notepad repeats the process,that is it appends the date and time

to the end of the file and places the cursor below it.
