Hypermedia refers to a unique kind of software environment that combines the characteristics of both hypertext and multimedia. Hypertext refers to an environment in which we can jump around electronically within large amounts of text. Hypermedia extends this concept to include other forms of media, such pictures, sound, animation, and video. Ideas and concepts – whether represented as text, sound, or images – can be linked to related ideas and concepts. Different people exploring the same body of information are likely to follow different paths, depending on their interests and objectives.
