Hypertext is trouble enough.
The primary focus of the Boidem is (I hope) its content. I'll occasionally play
around a bit with the design, but ordinarily this is only done when it (more or
less) fulfills some purpose related to the topic of the column. In second place,
however, and not too far behind in focus, is the usage of hypertext - not as an
organizing principle, but instead as a medium that allows me to stray (though
not too far) from the topic at hand. Because from experience I've learned that
hypertextual writing can be confusing to the reader, I attempt to keep other elements
of these columns, such as the design, as simple as possible. I figure that causing
confusion on one level is enough.
