Add-on summary

This browser extension reads the browsing history over a given period and renders it as a navigation graph (nodes are visited pages aggregated by domain name, edges are link traversals or form submissions from one page to another).

This extension is also part of a research project on hypermedia systems, whose objective is to collect (anonymized) navigation data. This navigation data will then be analyzed to compare human browsing behaviors with the behavior of autonoumous Web agents ("bots").

User reviews

Nifty little add on. Try it with a short period of time first or it'll get very slow! When I got it to do a long period it made Firefox hang, so beware
