A system and method for previewing hyperlinks with textual abstracts. The system provides users with previews of previously visited hyperlinks through textual abstracts of the web destination pages. The textual abstracts provide visual cues to remind the user of a page's content. Further, the system presents previews of the destination of the hyperlinks to the user in a dynamic browsing environment which is independent of any WWW browser and operating system. Such a system is implemented through a proxy-server or client-side program. Finally, the system is configurable to allow for the customization of how and which textual abstract to display.
