Abstract

A browser interface is described for displaying predictive content that is predicted to be interesting to a user. In one embodiment, a forward button in a browser may become a predictive forward button when the user is at the end of a history stack. By selecting the predictive forward button, the user may access predictive content, such as content related to one or more pages viewed during the current browsing session. In some embodiments, the user can sequentially select the predictive forward button any number of times to iteratively explore new content, such as content that is related to other content viewed during the current session.
