ABSTRACT:
Methods, systems, and computer program products are disclosed for creating, displaying, selecting, updating, and using visual bookmarks. A visual bookmark is a reduced graphical image of a web page that is associated with the URL for that web page. The invention allows the user to view a bookmarked web page by selecting a visual bookmark of the desired page from a plurality of visual bookmarks instead of making a selection from a list of web page titles. One way the visual bookmark is created is when the user decides to add a displayed web page to the user's bookmark list. This causes the displayed image to be captured, reduced, and associated with the web page's URL and title.
