Abstract

This paper proposes a method of enabling users to memorize important information obtained from daily Web browsing by letting them manage their browsing history as cards. People always encounter a lot of information on websites, but most of it is forgotten even if needed later. Therefore, we implemented a memory retention support system based on card creation and management. This system allows users to make cards semi-manually using their website browsing history. The system displays the cards in an easy-to-view manner and provides management functions. By creating and organizing the cards that summarize their daily browsing activities and reviewing the cards they collected, users can realize what they value and recall necessary information more easily. The results of the user study in which the participants used the system for a Web search task demonstrated that the proposed semi-manual card creation has positive effects on memory retention after four days.
