System and method for indicating interest of online content
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- one or more processors and a memory configured to store instructions, wherein the instructions are executable by the one or more processors to implement;
a web browser; and
a badge code module configured to execute within an execution environment provided by said web browser;
wherein said badge code module is further configured to display an indication of content interest associated with a content source, wherein said indication is dependent upon a time rate of change of content request traffic directed to said content source, wherein said time rate of change of said content request traffic is indicative of a change in said content request traffic per unit of time, such that display of said indication of content interest by said badge code module varies according to variations in said time rate of change of said content request traffic.

Abstract
Systems and methods for displaying interest levels of online content. In one embodiment, a system may include a web browser. A badge code module may execute within an execution environment provided by the web browser and may display an indication of content interest associated with a content source, where the indication is dependent upon a time rate of change of content request traffic directed to the content source. In another embodiment, a system may include a web browser configured to generate a web browser window. A plugin module may be integrated with the web browser for execution, may generate a display interface integrated within the browser window, and may display an indication of content interest associated with a content source via the display interface, where the indication is dependent upon a time rate of change of content request traffic directed to the content source.
