Bibliography

Bibliographies, like everything else, require some reconsidered thinking about their organization in an online environment. For example, if I want to provide an annotated bibliography, should I put all the annotations here or, if I have already included this source in my web site Hyperizons , merely cite the source briefly here and link to the fuller citation (to save both disk space and my time)? For now, I've decided to point to the citations in Hyperizons if I've already written one. The bibliography is divided into two parts at present, "Books, Articles, and Web Sites" and "Software" (generally hypertext systems discussed as counterexamples to HTML.
