Zeitgeist
Description
This is a module implementing history functions for search. It enables a configurable "recent searches" block, and future versions can use its data to provide frequency reporting on searches over various time periods.
It has been developed as an answer to issue http://drupal.org/node/39267 for which the initially suggested solutions weren't seen as generally good.
Safety warning
It is generally NOT a good idea to activate the Zeitgest latest searches block for public display, as it can be used to display inappropriate content just by searching for it.
If you turn it on, it is recommended to exclude search from spidering in your robots.txt to avoid your site being picked up by them on searches.

See the Zeitgeist lifecycle page off-site. In addition to community support here on drupal.org, Professional support is available from OSInet for this module.
Contributing / documentation
The module is now available directly on Drupal.org: the Zeitgeist wiki only contains documentation.
For developers wishing to submit patches to Zeitgeist 4.7.x/5.x, please refer to the OSInet coding standards under which this module is maintained. This is slightly different from the Drupal coding standard. The 6.x and later versions now apply the Drupal coding standards.
