Abstract
A set of resources is accessed via a browser of a computer by procuring a bookmark database including a set of bookmark files, each of which is associated with a URI identifying a resource and includes a description of a set of context items. The context of use of the computer is monitored. The current context file having a set of context items is correspondingly updated. From the contents of the current context file, a subset of the bookmark database is computed to derive a subset of bookmarks having a higher relevance to the user. The subset of bookmarks is displayed by the browser.
