Abstract.
This video illustrates a redesigned recency-ordered history system that integrates history and bookmarks/favorites via dogearing pages. It also provides thumbnail images of the page as part of each entry so they are immediately recognizable. Thumbnails also include bars that indicate their frequency of use. A slider filters th elist by frequency. Filtering can also be done by domains, where only pages in that domain are dislayed. Similarly, filtering can be done by partial text matches of page titles. Back and forward are modified to move across the recency-ordered history list.

Keywords: History systems.
