Total recall: Search engine remembers EVERYTHING you have ever looked at on your computer

With so much time spent online, it can be near impossible to remember where you might have seen that interesting nugget of information.

One Seattle-based software firm is trying to battle the digital memory haze by taking snap shots of your computer and tracking everything you have ever looked at on your machine.

Called Atlas Recall, its makers say the software is a one-stop search platform that ‘gives you a photographic memory for your digital life’.

HOW DOES IT WORK? 

Atlas Recall runs in the background on a users to device to monitor everything they have looked at.

The idea is that they can find everything related to a search term, such as a name or place, just by searching in either the iOS magnifying glass, or through Google Chrome or Safari.

Its makers claim users own their data, that everything is encrypted and that users can change settings to ensure blocked content never leaves their device.

Speaking to CNN Money, Atlas CEO Jordan Ritter said: 'We now have diverse sets of apps and platforms and services, and we move fluidly between all of them. What we want is something that works the way we use our devices and data.'
