Very open ended question! You should just approach this like any other design decision tho', look at why you are keeping it, how you are going to query it, what you will use it for etc. then design it appropriately. First thought is stick it in a database with a user_id, date and a description of the change (perhaps include a unified diff if it's appropriate so that the actual change is quite obvious - this may impose a fairly large amount of overhead tho). It all depends on you application, how you design your general storage backend, and how you use it.
