HYPERTEXT: Duality of Realistic Function
I know, the title sounds like something really deep and interesting and the concept itself is going to be a letdown for most of you who read this, but I couldn’t think of a better way to say it.
The premise is much more simple: As I sit here in the frameshop with the door open to the spring breath of sweetly greening buds and leaves I go to check the mail, hit "Mail" to get to the Mac Mail app, even as I hear the engine of the mailtruck stopping at the neighbor’s, revving up to stop and idle again at our own mailbox directly across the street, I hear the ‘ding’ that tells me I have email. Simultaneously, the second clank of the mailbox that is mine that tells me I have physical mail there too.
Neat world we live in these days, no?
