+ In several hypertext systems today, following a link means a *disruptive*
change
+ in the user's workflow, replacing the current context (e.g., a Web page)
with an
+ entirely different one. This is partly caused by the dominant graphical user
interface paradigm
+ (developed in the 70s at Xerox PARC; see, e.g., [kay93smalltalk]_) in which
*pag
+ es* are shown in overlapping, rectangular, unconnected viewports (windows).
+ In this paradigm, following a link can only create a new window
+ or replace the contents of the current window.
+ In our opinion, this is one of the root causes of hypertext disorientation

issues arising in the

Fenfire uses xanalogical storage model as a basis for hyperstructured media.
