Abstract
Each entry within a 'hotlist' (bookmark, favorites, or history list) includes a set of keywords topically identifying the content of the linked page. The keywords included within META tags for HTML files of an accessed Web page may be automatically detected and extracted by the browser for the hotlist when the browser creates the entry for that page within the hotlist. Alternatively, the browser may tabulate terms from the page content itself to select keywords identifying the content. In either case, the user may selectively edit the keywords for a hotlist entry to add, modify, or delete keywords. The keywords are stored with the hotlist data and may be searched for a particular topic. Hotlist entries matching the search criteria are displayed to the user and, upon selection of a particular matching entry by the user, employed to automatically generate a request for the corresponding page.
