    Wow

    Looks very, very cool. A few things:

    1) Does this integrate with Safari? It's not clear.
    2) I go to a LOT of web pages in a day. It would be cool if you could filter the view by a certain day or by browser window (i.e. I typically use tabs to organize my browsing into "topics", it would be cool if you could filter by "topic" you set up.)
    3) History integration with bookmarks would be cool. Drag a history square into your bookmarks to make a link, or tag a bunch of history squares and create bookmarks out of all of them.

    Not bad though for a "1.0-ish" product!

    School

    One of the cool thing I see here is the fact that these students are learning OS X application development, nice.

    Trailblazer's not bad

    for a student project. Not really functional though. The history thumbnail view is neato. But history is only one small part of a robust browser. If you have a cool history view, but everything else about the browser is clumsy, then your stuck with something that is too frustrating to use after the initial "Gee-Whiz". It wouldn't even autocomlete ".com". I typed "apple" into the address field, and it couldn't find the site. I typed "apple.com" in the field and the site popped up.

    If it worked alongside Safari, it would be pretty cool. Use Safari to Browse, Trailblazer for history.

    something that would be cool would be live zooming in and out of the thumbnail window, or something like that... I imagine the novelty of the thumbnails would wear off when scrolling back and forth, and up and down through the thumbnail view after you have a hundred or more giant thumbnails.

    So, it's cool and clever for a student project, but not a real world app... yet?

    Interesting

    I tried it and it's interesting. I agree, great for a student project and great to see some OS X programming going on. Honestly though, I have never had much trouble using the history menu so I don't really get the point.
