Hypertext 2008

June 19-21, 2008 - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

In 2007, we celebrated the 20th anniversary of the ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia series which is the acknowledged venue for high quality peer-reviewed research on linking. The web, the semantic web and 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 effect on society. If information is connected, then the connection is called a link: the Hypertext Conference is concerned with all research concerning links.

The 2008 ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia will invite professionals from academia, industry and the media to examine the incredibly diverse range of research areas linking people, places, and information. These research areas will be highlighted through a series of tracks, each focused on leading edge topics and featuring practitioners who are eager to share their knowledge.  The tracks are:
