Review of hypertexts

Publishing written papers onto a hypertext has been an interesting experience.  I have done two of these types of works: a personal hypertext and a Podcast Hypertext.  There are several things that I liked:

  1. The ability to link to ideas/pages/references of other people
  2. Adding pictures or YouTube videos definitely adds to the presentation to make it a full experience.
  3. It’s different

What I didn’t like:

  1. The amount of time it takes to create the hypertext takes away from the amount of time I could have spent to make the writing better or longer
  2. All of the bells and whistles can take away from the meaning of the words.

 

Overall it was interesting experience, but I probably will not choose to do this on a regular basis.
