Hyperfiction: To Have or Not to Have, That Is the Question

Abstract

Hypertext has been an advantage of multi‐media presentations since its inception. A click on a hypertext word or phrase can open a window for definitions, show motion segments on demand, serve as an external program call, provide photographs and sound segments, or simply provide the user with an alternative path of action. These options spark life in applications from encyclopedias to scientific demonstrations. However, it is companies like Eastgage Systems in Cambridge, Massachusetts, that are using hypertext as the fundamental structure for hyperfiction.
