Object Currents' unique hypertext media provides for advances over earlier
journals - links to home pages, sites, databases and information servers,
interaction, animation, graphics, code retrieval and execution, expanded
pages, video, virtual reality and chat sessions.  While all of these may
not have appeared in these first issues, they will appear in the future.

Check it out!

Best Regards,
Bob Hathaway
