WordForwardWords

Welcome to WordForwardWords. This blog seeks participation to explore posibilities of our emerging information transfer paradigm.



Have you any thoughts about rationale for establishing hyperlinks within our markup language? What is hypertext? What advantages for sound information retrieval can be furthered through conscious application of logical principles in defining hyperlink placement? We can recapitulate familiar practices and extend our thinking in the interests of optimum information transfer. What are the implications of linking one idea with another? Please join this discussion if you are considering such issues.
Have you read Vannevar Bush?
I consider his 1945 essay, "As We May Think" essential reading.
Thanks for visiting.
