Is the WWW Killing Hypermedia?
As a group that has spent many years applying open hypermedia technologies to the Web, we have long been interested in finding out how in practice people are building Web sites: what anchors they are choosing to link from in their own pages and what pages they are choosing to link to. Since the first use of the terms hypertext and hypermedia by Nelson in the mid-1960's, associative linking has been at the heart of the hypermedia authoring, and is the essence of non-sequential writing - this is the type of linking that we were most keen to investigate.

Abstract

As a group that has spent many years applying open hypermedia technologies to the Web, we have long been interested in finding out how in practice people are building Web sites: what anchors they are choosing to link from in their own pages and what pages they are choosing to link to. Since the first use of the terms hypertext and hypermedia by Nelson in the mid-1960's, associative linking has been at the heart of the hypermedia authoring, and is the essence of non-sequential writing - this is the type of linking that we were most keen to investigate.
