iBreadCrumbs: A Social Network for Researchers to Share Recorded URLs,
Track Websites, Review Notes Online, and Encourage Online Collaborative
Research.

iBreadCrumbs.com is a recording toolbar for your web browser. Similar
to what a DVR does for tv, iBreadCrumbs.com records all the web pages
you visit while you research. Save, review, and share your research with
friends or colleagues. iBreadCrumbs allows students, researchers, and
professors to organize the world's data into narrow research
"breadcrumbs" or click-streams.
