Hypertext

A brief introduction to Hypertext, and its Uses, can be found on this site. By following the links to the various pages that have been set up, hopefully, it will give you a guide to what hypertext is all about.

The idea that hypertext is a new technology is very mistaken. In fact the Development and History behind hypertext can prove quite different.

Having said that hypertext is not "new technology", it is only with today's hardware, and the speed with which it can transfer data, that hypertext can be used to its full Interactive capability.

The many uses of hypertext are explained in depth on other pages in this site, as are the Practices of using it.
