Facebook keeps a record of everything you search for on its Web site.
Check out this How To guide for cleaning up the list, or just limiting
what information Facebook is storing about you.
Each time you look for a friend, business, or personality on
Facebook, it gets saved to your search history. Supposedly, this makes
it easier for you to find what you were looking for later without much
work. Unfortunately, the search history might be cluttered with queries
that don't require quick access -- like someone you've already become
friends with, a brand you're already following.
If you want to
limit some of the information Facebook is keeping about you, or just
tidy up the list, it's just a few clicks away. Here's how to get
started:
Step 1: Click on the Settings cog in the top-right corner. Choose the Activity Log option from the menu.
Step 2: You will see all of your recent
Facebook activity. Under Photos, Likes, and Comments in the left side
menu bar, click More, then choose Search.
Step 3: All
of your search history, provided you haven't deleted it before, will
appear. Individual searches can be removed by clicking the block icon
and then Remove. If you want to clear all of it, click on the Clear
Searches link at the top.
