nn date May 2011 Rhizome Navigation is a method of dynamically creating a navigation interface for data systems, such as websites and databases. The navigation links presented to the user are not predefined, they are generated in response to user behavior, and analysis of other data. The word rhizome is used as a metaphor, to compare the growth and structure of rhizome navigation interfaces with the complex organic growth and structure of rhizome s, underground Plant stem plant stems that send out root s and shoots from their nodes. Examples of use A good example of rhizome navigation in use can be found in the program Enronic. In their investigation into the Enron scandal , the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission made a large portion of Enron s email database available to the public. Enronic analyzes these email messages to display the relationships between Enron employees, based on who emailed whom and how often. The program uses Prefuse , an open source Java programming language Java library for creating visual representations of data. Rhizome Navigation is an open source project which aims to provide useful text and graphical navigation aids to users of websites and databases, by analysing the navigation selections of previous users.

Tabbing navigation should not be confused with tabbed document interface In computing , tabbing navigation is the ability to navigate between focusable elements such as hyperlink s and form controls within a structured document or user interface such as HTML with the tab key of a computer keyboard . Usually, pressing tt Tab tt will focus on the next element, while pressing tt Shift tt tt Tab tt will focus on the previous element. The order of focusing can be determined implicitly based on physical order or explicitly based on tab index . In general, tabbing is cyclical, not linear, meaning that the tabbing will cycle to the first last element when it moves away from the last first element. Customization On web pages, by default tabbing navigates through Form web form fields such as text entry and HTML anchor anchors such as links in the order they appear in the character stream i.e., in the raw HTML .

The Bureau of Navigation also investigated marine accidents and casualties collected tonnage taxes and other navigation fees and examined, certified and licensed merchant vessel sailors. When established, the bureau was a part of the United States Department of the Treasury Department of the Treasury . In 1903, the organization was transferred to the newly formed Department of Commerce and Labor . In 1913 that department was split in two and the bureau was assigned to the Department of Commerce . In 1932 it was combined with the Steamboat Inspection Service as the Bureau of Navigation and Steamboat Inspection . In 1942, Executive order United States Executive Order 9083 transferred many functions to two other agencies. Merchant vessel documentation was transferred to the Bureau of Customs. Functions relating to merchant vessel inspection, safety of life at sea, and merchant vessel personnel were transferred to the United States Coast Guard U.S. Coast Guard .

Direct navigation describes the method individuals use to navigate the World Wide Web in order to arrive at specific website s. Direct navigation is a 10 year old term which is generally understood to include type in traffic . Direct navigation traffic was first discovered circa 1996. The few lucky domainer s who had premium names and analyzed their traffic found people were typing in their domain names and bypassing search engines . Many of them immediately realized the potential of these domain names. At that time the direct navigation segment of the World Wide Web was born. Domainers describe direct navigation as an Internet user navigating to a website directly through the browser address bar . They bypass online search engines by typing a name like hotels and adding .com . For that reason direct navigation traffic is more valuable than search engine traffic since it is better targeted. Short words that describe large segments of a market are the most valuable direct navigation names. Domainers call these names premium names and they have sold in the millions of dollars year after year since 1997. Marketers also include bookmarked traffic in the direct navigation group. Domainers do not consider bookmarked traffic as direct navigation since in most cases they do not involve a direct navigation premium domain name. A Bookmark web bookmark is made when an internet user actively adds a URL to their list of bookmarked pages. This is much different than using the browser address line to navigate to a premium domain name like hotels.com. Hence the inclusion of bookmarked traffic is not included in the domainer s version of the direct navigation market. A 2005 study of Internet traffic by WebSideStory s StatMarket division revealed that direct navigation traffic such as browser type in traffic , bookmarks of existing sites, and visits to existing, known website domain names ..., 2008, the first direct navigation search engine, ubexact.com was released.
