Abstract

See full text

In the context of global hypertext, a new solution to the human interface problem of waiting for the content of a next page to arrive and be displayed by a WWW browser. Small amounts of relevant content are stored and maintained in the hyperlinks themselves. This extra content is revealed to users during download wait time. Hypertext links that contain and reveal extra content are called content laden links. By displaying content which is useful and relevant to the user while the next WWW page is being fetched, useless dead time can be turned into productive time and the satisfaction level of the user increased.
