	Usability News - 5.2 2003 -- Breadcrumb Navigation: Further Investigation of Usage
		Breadcrumb trails give location information and links in a backward linear manner; whereas, navigation methods, such as search fields or horizontal/vertical navigation bars, serve to retrieve information for the user in a forward-seeking approach.
		Breadcrumb users were found to use the Back button less often than users who did not use the breadcrumb; however, no differences were found in the efficiency measures of total pages visited, navigation bar clicks, embedded link clicks, or time to complete the search tasks.
		Breadcrumb trails positioned under the page title (at eye level and closer to other links on the page) were used more than breadcrumb trails positioned at the top of the page.

	Providing a breadcrumb trail - WCAGWiki
		A breadcrumb trail helps the user to visualize how content has been structured and how to navigate back to previous Web units, and may identify the current location within a series of Web units.
		A breadcrumb trail either displays locations in the path the user took to reach the web unit, or it displays the location of the current Web unit within the organization of the site.
		Breadcrumb trails are implemented using links to the Web units that have been accessed in the process of navigating to the current web unit.

	Breadcrumb
		For example, hit lists typically include a breadcrumb to inform users about the hierarchy level of a search result and therefore are guides to the list items.
		If the breadcrumb line becomes longer than the width of the browser window, the breadcrumb is word-wrapped like a text line (figure 2).
		Breadcrumbs can be displayed as simple path information (no link, figure 3 top), as a chain of clickable locations within the hierarchy (figure 3 center), or as one link that is described by the path information (figure 3 bottom).

	Kirill Grouchnikov's Blog: Breadcrumb bar - from closed source to open source
		In addition, the breadcrumb bar allows easy backwards navigation in the path - use the mouse or the keyboard to select some particle.
		The breadcrumb bar provides memory functionality, allowing adding the current path to the memory, going back and forth through the memory paths (the selection is updated automatically), saving the memory to a stream using XML-based format, loading the memory from XML-based stream and clearing the memory.
		The breadcrumb bar uses application-supplied callback to retrieve a list of root particles and child particles.

	Usability News - 5.1 2003 -- Breadcrumb Navigation: An Exploratory Study of Usage
		In general, breadcrumbs serve two purposes: 1) they provide information to the user as to where they are located within the site, and 2) they offer shortcut links for users to “jump” to previous categories in the sequence without using the Back key, other navigation bars, or the search engine.
		The median split of breadcrumb usage was found to be 4.0, within a range of 0 to 21, 28 (48%) of the participants were categorized into non-breadcrumb user (<4) and 31 (52%) as a breadcrumb user (≥4).
		Breadcrumb users were not found to be more efficient than users who did not use the breadcrumb.

	definition: breadcrumb navigation, topic path, trail \| Motive Glossary
		The term ‘breadcrumb’ is a reference to the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel —where the titular children leave a trail of crumbs to find their way back out of a forest.
		Breadcrumb navigation (also referred to as a ‘breadcrumb trail’), locates the current webpage in the context of a navigation path.
		Transcript breadcrumb navigation is also useful when an item is assigned multiple, nonhierarchical classifications, in other words, when there are a number of different, equally valid paths to the same webpage.

	Past Issues - UI Design Newsletter
		Specifically, breadcrumbs are a secondary form of navigation (see figure below) that, in some cases, provide users the decision path they took to arrive at that page.
		Incidentally, anecdotal and proprietary studies suggest that it's not breadcrumbs but their visual design and placement that mitigates use: Users note design elements that are highly salient/important (e.g., global navigation), highly visible or is in the area they are looking at on the screen.
		And when the breadcrumb navigation trail is visible and presented where the user is looking, users tend to exploit them more.

	Active Server Developer's Journal / Create a breadcrumb for navigating Web pages with server-side XML
		Breadcrumbs provide an intuitive, context-oriented way of keeping track of where you are and how you got there and can significantly simplify page navigation for those sites that deal with hierarchical information.
		This allows us to easily move to any node in the XML document and access any associated data we wish to store with that node when a user is returning to a previously viewed page.
		When a user returns to a given page via the breadcrumb, and then changes some state information on the page (like the sort order for a list, or a value in a text field), the associated XML node is updated with the new information.

	Breadcrumb Navigation
		Breadcrumb navigation is also commonly known as "breadcrumbs" and is so named because it provides a trail of clicks someone can follow to find a Web page, much like dropping breadcrumbs through a forest provides a trail from a known starting location.
		In contrast, our structural breadcrumbs shows the location of a page in the structure, and in cases where we link from deep within one branch of the site to a different major branch within the site, the breadcrumbs can change significantly with just one click.
		Tracking breadcrumbs are far less common and useful primarily in very specific kinds of sites, particularly those that require sophisticated audience tracking.

	AquariumDomain.com - Breadcrumb Sponge
		The Breadcrumb Sponge and other members of its genus are usually red, orange, or yellow.
		The Breadcrumb Sponge needs a moderate to strong water current to provide it with filter feeding opportunities, but be careful to place the sponge slightly out of the path so that it only receives an indirect current.
		If it is, the air becomes trapped in the matrix of channels that line the inside of its body, and with air blocking the path for planktonic food to reach its cells, it will die.
