Now, hypertext is considered as information “linked and cross-referenced in many different ways and is widely available to end users”(Hooper, 1990)
The notion of hypertext eventually extended to hypermedia: no sequential documents containing not only text, but also elements such as audio, video, graphics, drawings, photographs, and animation, along with computer systems on which these components are stored and displayed. Probably the most familiar hypermedia system to you is the
World Wide Web.
