hypertext

One of the joys of the web is being able to easily cite and read sources (it was the whole point of hypertext).

Folklore.org is so great, such a great example of hypertext in addition to the history.

You know, in the age of hypertext and search engines you would think that news would become more focused on actual events and facts.

I recall hearing Ted Nelson talk about his infamous Xanadu hypertext system some 20 years ago.

It also provides services such as hypertext document access and electronic mail.

We've seen hypertext systems in general many times before the web.

However, I saw nothing in your hypertext link that would easily attach to the armband and not interfere with my stroke.

It's a scripted hypertext document trying to pretend it's an application.

Maybe if there were more standardization around hypertext formats.

Yes, we do - for hypertext documents - as per original design.

That's how the web worked when authors were competent and not beholden to marketers; before the industry dismantled an outstanding hypertext platform and replaced it with an embarrassingly half-assed application platform.

Kind of want reply both to you and @pjc50: I think moving images with sound as part of hypertext/hypermedia is a given -- and has been since (at least) the 60s.

I always thought it was "PHP Hypertext Preprocessor".

Hypertext links was simply the first step, but those existed for us for years before the web: gopher, specialty systems, etc.

Hypertext systems existed long before WWW.
