Revisiting web pages is common when using web browsers. Commercial browsers provide some revisitation tools for users, for example, back and forward buttons, bookmarks and history lists. However, these tools still have some limitations. In this paper, we presented the design and implementation of a novel thumbnail-based web revisitation tool (TRT). TRT employs enhanced thumbnail and treemaps for improving user experience. Comparing to the other graphical revisitation tools, TRT has three new features. First, TRT display thumbnails and titles in a panel, not a list box. Second, logo-enhanced thumbnails are used as an option by the user. Third, treemaps visualization method is used to change the layout of the panel.
