Abstract
If we wish to access information from a large collection of unrelated abstracts, then a method that finds all potentially relevant information and presents it in ranked order is likely to be very helpful. If we have a well structured body of small pieces of information, then browsing through the information is likely to be very helpful. That is, there are situations in which information retrieval and in which hypertext are the ideal method of accessing information.
