Abstract

We present Prizm, a prototype lifelogging device that comprehensively records a user's web activity. Prizm is a wireless access point deployed on a Raspberry Pi that is designed to be a substitute for the user's normal wireless access point. Prizm proxies all HTTP(S) requests from devices connected to it and records all activity it observes. Although this particular design is not entirely novel, there are a few features that are unique to our approach, most notably the physical deployment as a wireless access point. Such a package allows capture of activity from multiple devices, integration with web archiving for preservation, and support for offline operation. This paper describes the design of Prizm, the current status of our project, and future plans.

From Born-Physical to Born-Virtual: Augmenting Intelligence in Digital Libraries
Abstract
Upon replay, JavaScript on archived web pages can generate recurring HTTP requests that lead to unnecessary traffic to the web archive. In one example, an archived page averaged more than 1000 requests per minute. These requests are not visible to ...

Current web browsers do not differentiate between the live Web and the past Web. If a user loads an archived webpage, or memento, they have to rely on elements in the page itself to be aware that they are not viewing a live webpage. Another ...
