That's exactly what it is, a blob of (hopefully transparent) glue. 
Works best when there is little or no glass missing, just a 'starburst'
crack.  You can buy a DIY kit at the local auto parts store, but I
haven't tried mine yet.  Comes with an 'injector' to hopefully get it
into the cracks and make them less visible.
