The Contingencies of the Hypertext Link.
Harpold, Terence
Writing on the Edge, v2 n2 p126-38 Spr 1991
Argues that the accidents of reading a hypertext (changing your destination, forgetting your point of departure, or getting lost along the way) are not the effects of inappropriate cues, misinterpreted reference or poor design, but the general condition of the hypertext as text, amplified by the narrative turns of the link.
