"In hypertext everything is there at once and equally weighted."
This statement means that in hypertext (or the text-within-text found in digital formats, or 'links'), one click can bring you anywhere ("there at once") and that even small amounts of words can give off a wealth of information ("equally weighted").
i agree with your diessection of this sentence. But, I am still confused wheather the "equally weighed" part refers to the information. Do you think all the information is equally useful?
ReplyDeleteWouldn't the idea of "weighted" be in terms of value so that all the information is accessible at the click of the mouse and all of it is as important as the rest?
