The discloses method and apparatus (“system”) enables users to: generate a map of computer servers visited while browsing, calculate the total distance travelled on the web, earn “Goosemiles” or travel points for the distance surfed on the web, earn bonus points for being the first member to access a specific site or web-page, leave an electronic flag or message for other users or specific users who visit the site later, set-up guided annotated tours of the web or “Goose hunts” for specific members or group of members where messages are left on a series of sites with each providing a clue to the next link in the chain until they reach the final site or prize. Also, phishing attacks are spotted by alerting them if a familiar site is located in a different location.
