- Nelson created the word and concept of "hypertext"
- Hypertext combines "multimedia computing, electronic literature, and the World Wide Web."
- Hypertext: "a body of written or pictorial material interconnected in such a complex way that it could not conveniently be presented or represented on paper."
- This is not the only way Nelson was thinking about hypertext
- Hypertext can also be seen as a "complex, reconfigurable, linked [structure] of information..."
