----------------------------

The World Wide Web is an enormous publishing system, every user can publish
texts and documents world-wide. This communication space, where information
is used collectively, is based on the concept of hypertext, the networked
reading and writing of texts, the effort of organizing content
associatively.
The consequences are fundamental changes compared to traditional text
production and distribution. Multiple authoring, globalization and
individualism, new sales strategies of publishing houses, book stores,
authors and artists - all this results in new possibilities as well as risks
for literary production outside the market-driven best-seller charts.

Essays on the WWW and various projects, interviews and talks with Michael
Joyce, Andreas Okopenko / Libraries of the Mind, RTMark, Luther
Blissett/wu-ming, Pool Processing, Stephen King, Kathrin R�ggla, Nika
