Authorship Provisions in Augment Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework

Transclusions on the Web behaviour

At Seed Hypermedia, we're working on enhancing the user experience (UX) of embedded and transcluded content from one web page to another. A question has arisen that I believe has broader implications for hypertext systems, and I’d love to hear your thoughts. Should transcluded content be selectable, having the same behaviour as the rest of the content? Should transclusions be clickable, acting like an embedded tweet? Any design principles or historical perspectives from Xanadu and Augment you can share would be much appreciated. t

“Consider a future device … in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory.” By Vannevar Bush Keywords: Keywords This has not been a scientist's war; it has been a war in which all have had a part. The scientists, burying their old professional competition in the demand of a common cause, have shared greatly and learned much. It has been exhilarating to work in effective partnership. Now, for many, this appears to be approaching an end. What are the scientists to do next? For the biologists, and particularly for the medical scientists, there can be little indecision, for their war has hardly required them to leave the old paths. Many indeed have been able to carry on their war research in their familiar peacetime laboratories. Their objectives remain much the same. WOW It is the physicists who have been thrown most violently off stride, who have left academic pursuits for the making of strange destructive gadgets, who have had to devise new methods for their unanticipated assignments. They have done their part on the devices that made it possible to turn back the enemy, have worked in combined effort with the physicists of our allies. They have felt within themselves the stir of achievement. They have been part of a great team. Now, as peace approaches, one asks where they will find objectives worthy of their best. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
