- storing, for each one of a plurality of documents, an indication of a last accessed portion of the document;
- and
- displaying to a user, simultaneously for each one of the plurality of documents, a single respective graphical representation for the document without opening the document, wherein
- the single respective graphical representation for the document is a representation of the last accessed portion of the document,
- the displaying occurs without at least one of the document or the graphical representation for the document being interacted upon by the user,
- the indication of the last accessed portion of the document is stored as user-specific metadata, and
- different users who browse the plurality of documents see different graphical representations of a same document based on the user-specific metadata.
