"With mobile’s deep links, everyone seems to have collectively wiped the
buzzword slate clean and started fresh — no context, no memory. No
depth. It’s as if someone started a new comedy act today and called it
“Monty Python” without offering any sign of knowing the name had a history."
Good article on the relentless commercialisation of the very concept of
linking. References a lot of the relevant pioneers including Ted
Nelson. To paraphrase Ted, the web has become the thing we were trying
to prevent.
