Abstract

Methods and systems that present URLs from a history of records organized by locations are described. Each record may be stored to represent a URL accessed for retrieving a web page by a browser hosted in a device at a certain point in time. Additionally, the record may include a location data indicating a physical location of the device at the certain point in time. Optionally, a timestamp indicating the certain point in time may be included in the record. Groups of the records may be clustered according to the locations. In one embodiment, at least one of the groups may be selected for presentation on a display according to where the display is currently located.
