A particularly engaging exercise is Hypertext Haiku. The students write five haiku. Within each haiku they select appropriate words which will logically link them to another haiku. Rather then present the five haiku in a linear order the reader can select a word from each haiku and link to another haiku. The reader has some control by selecting an order in which the haiku will be read and the writer has some control by selecting the words which will be linked.
Equity is achieved to some degree between poet and reader.
More advanced uses of hypertext are possible in short stories, novels, and plays. Many fine examples of these new forms of literature are cropping up on the Internet everyday. Perhaps one of the most worrisome aspects of Internet resources is veracity. I do not think this is a problem. Consider these salient points.
