Extension summary

  • What does it do? The web browser stores your history. But, it doesn't determine how one website leads you to another. HistoryTree takes your history and puts it together like a puzzle so that you can determine how you got from one place to another.

  • Who is it for? Anyone who has ever asked the question, "How did I get here?" It's common place to use the computer to work on a homework assignment and then end up watching a video on how JFK's brain went mysteriously missing after his assassination. As I said, "How did I get there?"

Note: Your history is something that should be kept private. Our chrome extension runs entirely on your device within your browser. We recommend that you refrain from sharing history data with any external entities.

Fun idea.

This extension is awesome. I really like the idea of recording history using trees. It makes it so easy to organize your thought process and remember what you were thinking about when you were browsing.
