| The picture above is the oldest I have. It was taken about ten years after Vannevar Bush wrote about a new sort of thinking machine called Memex and maybe another ten years before Ted Nelson coined the term Hypertext. In my early days I had only a very few toys for playing. Actually all of them can be seen on the photograph. | ||
