Text is not what it used to be, and many things have changed with it.

Text is linear

Text is unlinear

Text is said to be unlinear

Text is often said to be unlinear

Text is unlinear when written on paper

Digital text is different.

Digital text is more flexible.

Digital text is moveable.

Digital text is above all…hyper.

Most early websites were written in HTML

HTML

HTML was designed to define the structure of a web document.

p is a structural element referring to “paragraph”



  • LI



  • LI is also a structural element referring to “List Item”



  • As HTML expanded, more elements were added.

    Including stylistic elements like B for bold and I for italics

    Such elements defined how content would be formatted.

    In other words, form and content became inseparable in HTML

    Digital Text can do better.

    Form and content can be separated.

    --> http://www.cnn.com

    --> RSS XML

    --> View Source

    XML was designed to do just that.

    --> http://www.cnn.com/?eref=rss_topstories

    same with

    --> CNN.com

    and

    and virtually all other elements in this document.

    They describe the content, not the form.

    So the data can be exported,

    free of formatting constraints.

    We Are the Web

    --> by Kevin Kelly

    “When we post and then tag pictures

    teaching the Machine to give names,

    we are teaching the Machine.

    Each time we forge a link,

    we teach it an idea.

    Think of the 100 billion times per day humans click on a Web page

    teaching the Machine”

    Digital text is no longer just linking information…

    Hypertext is no longer just linking information…

    The Web is no longer just linking information…

    The Web is linking people…

    Web 2.0 is linking people…

    …people sharing, tracing, and collaborating…

    We’ll need to rethink a few things…

    We’ll need to rethink copyright

    We’ll need to rethink authorship

    We’ll need to rethink identity

    We’ll need to rethink ethics

    We’ll need to rethink aesthetics

    We’ll need to rethink rhetorics

    We’ll need to rethink governance

    We’ll need to rethink privacy

    We’ll need to rethink commerce

    We’ll need to rethink love

    We’ll need to rethink family

    We’ll need to rethink ourselves.
