The Xanadu Dream
Links are the fundamental building blocks of the web. And every time I click on one, I can't help recalling the odd visionary who came up with the original idea of clickable links in text, aka hypertext, in 1963 -- Ted Nelson. Ted Nelson is, shall we say, a character. He has gone on record man...
