Similink : Using context to enhance web navigation

The objective of Similink is to enable you to thematically navigate on the web,
using context.

Context represents web pages that are thematically close to your current web
page. Similink proposes these Web pages inside a sidebar. By clicking on one of
these pages, Similink opens this page in a new tab and updates your context
accordingly.

Using this mechanism, you jump from one site to another according to their
"thematic proximity", instead of using the explicit hypertext links provided by
the page authors. You can view Similink as a Web co-navigator, which presents
you the surroundings of your current location on the Web, while you are
navigating. Similink combines navigation and search, allowing you to quickly
explore a whole thematic area of the Web.

Similink also supports you during your common hypertext navigation by proposing
you a precise representation of your current thematic location on the web.

Note: you will need a Google key to use Similink. Getting a Google is free.
