Hyperland

March 3rd, 2007 by Alistair MacDonald Leave a reply »

A long time ago (well 1990) I watched a television program created by Douglas Adams that demonstrated the concept of hyperlinking. It was a documentary(ish) that demonstrated the modern world wide web before it’t time.

This programme proved thought provoking and influential to me at the time, but it was forgotten over time and I never anticipated that I would even be able to find out what it was called never mind see it again. Fortunately I came across a reference to in in Wikipedai and discovered it was called “Hyperland”. After a little more digging I found it is here on Google Video.

If you have an hour to spare then I strongly recommend a viewing.
