Multiple highlights in Vim

I once saw someone do a couple successive searches in Emacs and saw it highlight each search in a different color, and retain the highlights for previous searches, so that you could have multiple highlights going at once. I was somewhat jealous that Vim could only highlight one search at a time. Turns out you can do multiple highlights in Vim via a plugin. There are actually a couple plugins that let you do this, but I like that one.
