• IBM Research: Capture, Reuse and Share Your Web Browsing History With Friends and Colleagues - Try It Out and Tell Us What You Think

  ” CoScripter Reusable History is a new tool from IBM Research that extends the web history capability of your Firefox web browser. The tool is now available for download from the IBM Research Labs Experimental Technology site. I know what you’re thinking…I don’t use the built-in history tool in my web browser now, so why would I use CoScripter Reusable History? I think there are a couple answers. First, our new tool records history at the level of interactions, such as clicking on a link or entering text into a form field, instead of the typical page-based model of traditional web history systems. With today’s modern web sites, if I want to be able to navigate back to a page in the future, I often find that saving the URL is not sufficient. Instead, I need to remember the exact set of actions that took me to that page, which is exactly what CoScripter Reusable History does for me.”
