About Yogurt

Yogurt is a Chrome extension that visualizes your online browsing history aiming to raise awareness of online distraction.

Yogurt is safe: it is 100% local extension, It does not record and share personal information.

Yogurt is non-intrusive: it does not block any website, it does not pop up annoying notification, it only shows distraction history in a delectable way.

Yogurt is light-weight: Yogurt is designed to be fast, meaning that it doesn't add overhead to your regular browsing experience and does not slow down your web browser.

Yogurt is simple: it provides the information you care in a clear, easy-understanding way.

Inspired by DNA art

DNA art is an artistic piece from a person's own DNA. It is a mystery, highly-encrypted self-portrait of the person's genetic makeup, identity, personality and even behavior.

Yogurt is inspired by DNA art. Since one's online behavior is a part of himself, which is also unique and personal, It is very interesting to display his online behavior in this similar format. Yogurt can bring user the awareness of online distraction in a modest, friendly way via artistic appearance, and keep the information with the feeling of mystery for personal privacy.

How it works

In order to detect your online activities, Yogurt tracks attention flows by auditing in-browser events. More specifically, only the attention flow of the current tab you're staying on will be tracked. When you switch to another tab, a new flow will be established while the current one will be closed. When you are working on other programs rather than chrome, the attention flow will be closed and that period will be marked as "Not in browser".

Then the data Yogurt has collected will be visualized via SVG using D3.

Terms & Privacy

Yogurt is a local Chrome extension. All your browsing data is locally stored and can only be accessed by you. Moreover, Yogurt only counts the amount of your in-browser actions (such as clicking, scrolling etc.), it never records or stores the information you type in.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
