Hi there!

Right now I'm logging some info of the user in my web app in a log file to observe the usage & interest for some services, but I'm interested in checking that info in a readeable way, so I'm questioning if maybe I shall save that info in a database and then retrieve it to show it in tables or whatever.

It's better to log in the database for my purposes? Or logging like now I could select/order the info of the log easily?
