ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for displaying interest levels of online content. In one embodiment, a system may include a web browser. A badge code module may execute within an execution environment provided by the web browser and may display an indication of content interest associated with a content source, where the indication is dependent upon a time rate of change of content request traffic directed to the content source. In another embodiment, a system may include a web browser configured to generate a web browser window. A plugin module may be integrated with the web browser for execution, may generate a display interface integrated within the browser window, and may display an indication of content interest associated with a content source via the display interface, where the indication is dependent upon a time rate of change of content request traffic directed to the content source.
