Reaction for: OMT Explainer: Dynamic Help for a Graphical Language by Amanda

Well, to put it simply, I am amazed.

I have often considered the internet to be more for entertainment rather than educational use. But the possiblities associated with Hypertext are limitless. This shows us as such.

Now, looking at this program and using it to understand a simple diagram helped alot. I was a little confused about some of the terminology that he used but then I realized that it was different ways to say the same things.

While I see that it was absolutely useful, I did have a few gripes. It wasn't always helpful...If I didn't understand a relationship I couldn't immediately understand it by reading the explanation. But, most of the time I found the explanations to be infomative and helpful. It also made it kind of fun to see the process in action.

My conclusions? This is a very helpful tool. It made me understand the diagram at hand. It also made me want to learn more about hypertext and the different ways to apply it.
