Ted Nelson was one of the original technology seers whose ideas helped to lay the intellectual groundwork for the World Wide Web. Xanadu was his original hypertext design, which described the ability to use multimedia and linking technology to enrich printed text with all kinds of other references and with a completely personal method of document navigation (by following hyperlinks in whatever order the reader wishes).

The so-called "Xanadu home page," which contains pointers to Ted Nelson's original documents and lots of related resources and research work. For those interested in a deeper, richer understanding of hypertext, this site is well worth investigating.
