Ask Unveils Eraser Privacy Measure

Ask.com the little search engine that could, has finally come out with another progressive feature to separate itself from the pack. The feature is called Ask Eraser, and unlike other search engines, it is an opt out feature to make sure your searches are not saved in their database. With the recent Yahoo! Leaking Data and even more recently Facebooks Beacon debacle this is a great step by Ask.com.

If you want to keep your information safe then I strongly recommend you start using Ask. Google, Yahoo, and MSN are not currently allowing for this feature. Lets see how quickly they will follow suit.

Also, I found this great video on Ask Search, check it out and let me know what you think: NOTE: I know Google owns YouTube and I am sure it is just a matter of time before they suck too :)
