In all the training we provide we teach the web as being non-linear. We teach our class participants that on the the web there is no top, no bottom. Non-linear meaning you do not have to follow a hiearchical path to informational resources. You can jump from on line (resource) to another; you can go directly to a resource if you know the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or address; or you can jump to specific parts of a document. Hope this helps. Nicola Cecchino wrote: > I'd say it's nonlinear....is a spider's web linear??? > > Mr. Nicola J. Cecchino > Edward G.
