TrailBlazer - The browser history file rethought
Authored by: luhmann on Apr 01, '04 09:43:06AM

It is a nice idea, but it is an awful web browser. I wish it would simply index the history files of Safari or OmniWeb instead of trying to be a browser as well, since it will never replace either one of them as a browser. It is more of a concept piece than functioning software; although, because it uses Apple's webkit, it does actually browse the web - just no tabs, bookmark bar, etc.

TrailBlazer - The browser history file rethought

That is exactly what I thought it was. I was very disappointed when I found out it was a browser.

If it was only the history tracker then it would be ok that it has faults. However, if the only way to get the history aspect of it is to use it as a browser then I won't be able to handle all of the shortcomings.

Later, Frank

Well safari and omniweb don't store enough information (specifically the path traversed through pages) to generate this interface from their history files.
