A method of monitoring user usage patterns of a system, comprising the steps of: providing at least one state object ( 180 ), the object including a profile representative of user usage; storing the state object at a client location ( 110 ); passing, to a central server ( 120 ), the state object with each subsequent interaction initiation; and receiving, from the central server, the state object along with the response ( 170 ) of the central server, wherein the profile is modified to reflect the interaction between client location and central server. The present invention provides a system and a method for monitoring user usage patterns, and is particularly suited to use in Internet and World Wide Web applications.
