Methods are disclosed for navigating between and within applications that display most recently visited applications and application parts, with redundancies eliminated from the display. The methods can be carried out in a computational machine that compiles a list of visited data-access locations, and identifies data-access locations that have been visited more than once, wherein each data-access location that has been visited more than once is presented in a collapsed form as a single navigational target. The methods then can present the visited data-access locations as a navigational control record including navigational targets that represent the visited data-access locations.
