  "keeps surfers from getting lost in cyberspace"! The web was such a magical mystery in the 90s.

  On the second page, you can read "Why the Web won't work"... https://much.isds.tugraz.at/projects/hyper-g/10.htm/ https://much.isds.tugraz.at/projects/hyper-g/10.htm/ Most of their criticism is spot-on. But Google for example managed to build an empire from one of the shortcomings of the Web they've listed: the lack of full text search in servers.

    yup, it's tcp vs OSI model, vhs vs betamax. hyper-g had the better solution, but http+html was easier to implement so it took off.
