Definition: Hypertext <sum09 1 6>
=====================
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Hypertext organizes information using network relationships so users │
│ can rapidly find and understand whatever they desire -- all without │
│ prior knowledge of the subject or the access technology. Neil │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────<link28>┘
Hypertext may be the most important new technology in the last 500
years <link28> because it combines six important ideas:
(1) BROWSING -- Rapidly find what you didn't know you wanted <link32>
(2) CONTEXT-FREE -- Works without prior knowledge of the subject <link33>
(3) EASY-USE -- Intuitive commands totally mastered in a minute <link34>
(4) OBVIOUS -- Users always know status of retrieval process <link35>
(5) SPEED -- Finds what you want within a dozen keystrokes <link36>
(6) SHOWS KNOWLEDGE -- Relationships and boundaries in answers <link37>
MaxThink Corporation <link27> provides both hypertext
construction software <link30> and commercial knowledge
systems <link31> that meet these goals.
