Yes, pdf format is not so great for this. CSV is much friendlier for 
data mining and building applications, but also not as easy to digest 
directly when there are a lot of entries.

This is nice.  Data in an accessible format that can be imported into a 
database allows developers to create user friendly applications. 
Websites typically log ip address data, and if you are logged in to 
Google, and do a Google search based on the links available in the 
website above, this may also be logged in your search history. Choice in 
applications is also good.
