The Global Read Aloud is an project that connects kids to books (non-hypertext versions). Hypertext connections can be shared with others around the world who are reading the same book. (read more in ISTE – Learning & Leading with Technology, December/January 2011-12, Vol. 39 No. 4 pp. 32-33)

Hyptertextopia – “is a space where you can read and write stories for the internet. On the surface, it looks like a mind-map, but it embeds a word-processor, and allows you to publish your stories like a blog.”

Hypertextopia Library – images of book covers connect to hypertext creations of the stories ‘within’. Try one of my favourite children’s stories – The Very Hungry Caterpillar – in hypertext format.

The Noon Quilt – presents a hypertext quilt woven together by individuals around the world, writing and describing what they saw outside their window at noon.
