... a bibliography.


The World Wide Web has blossomed into a self-reflective medium. Books are constantly being published about almost every aspect of the internet, but the Web itself remains the cutting edge for a serious examination of issues such as Community on the Web, Education via the Web, Identity on the Web, and of course Hypertext. Thus a bibliography of a discussion of one or more of these topics will inevitably cull most of its sources from the Web rather than from traditional print media. Another distinctive aspect of bibliographies devoted to topics such as that discussed here is that they reflect the eclectic nature of the World Wide Web: winded academic studies share the shelf with frivolous personal musings; experimental examinations of the medium are couched between scholarly tomes. And lest someone get the impression that it's all here, much more has been left out than has been included.
