Etymology

The term 'hyperlinked' emerged in the late 1980s with the advent of the World Wide Web, following the development of hypertext. The concept of hypertext was first proposed by Ted Nelson in the 1960s, who envisioned a system of non-linear text where readers could link related literature together. It wasn't until Tim Berners-Lee developed the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and the first web browser that hyperlinked content became a practical reality. As web technology evolved, using hyperlinks transformed how information is organized and accessed, enabling immersive user experiences and facilitating efficient information retrieval. Today, hyperlinked content is ubiquitous in digital media, enhancing navigation and connectivity across the web.
