To help the user deal with a graph once it gets large, it may be useful to provide tools to inspect a subset of the graph by category or string match.

E.g. as I type into the search filter box, all nodes fade out except the ones matching the term I'm typing (and their direct connections?) This would let me for instance easily focus on just the Google-related sites in my graph.

Related feature: check boxes to show/hide categories of sites ("sites I've visited") ("known trackers") etc. Nodes that don't match a checked box would fade out.
