Hypertext 2009 (Torino, Italy)

The ACM Hypertext Conference is the main venue for high quality peer-reviewed research on “linking.” The Web, the Semantic Web, the Web 2.0, and Social Networks are all manifestations of the success of the link.

Research topics will be organized into three tracks:

• Information Structure and Presentation (including interfaces and interaction)
• People, Resources, and Annotations (including user interfaces for collaborative annotation)
• Hypertext and Community

See ht2009.org for more information.

Hypertext 2008 (Pittsburgh, PA, USA)

The 19th International ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia, Hypertext 2008, invites professionals from industry and the media to examine the incredibly diverse range of research areas within the hypertext community.

The ACM Hypertext Conference series is an acknowledged venue for high quality peer reviewed research on linking. The web, the semantic web and the so called Web 2.0 are all manifestations of the success of the link. The Hypertext Conference provides the forum for research that considers links, their semantics, their presentation, the applications they have been put to, the knowledge that can be derived from their analysis and their affect of society. If information is connected, then the connection is called a link, and the Hypertext Conference is concerned with all research concerning links. Celebrate the power of the link!

Tracks:

• Information Linking and Organization
• Social Linking
• Applications of Hypertext
• Hypertext, Culture, and Communication
