Ted Nelson speaking in Sydney this Wednesday

Ted Nelson, one of the most interesting people in the history of personal computing, is speaking at Sydney University this week. His topic: “The Computer World Could Be Completely Different“. He is a radical thinker about publishing, to say the least. Quote from his web site:

“Before the personal computer, and before the Web, there was Theodor Holm Nelson, who almost half a century ago understood how computers would transform the printed page.”–John Markoff in the New York Times, 2009.01.10
