Tinderbox day at Hypertext 2008

In association with Eastgate Systems, Inc., a sponsor of Hypertext 2008, a Tinderbox day will be organized directly after HT 2008.

Tinderbox is a spatial hypertext system that helps people make, analyze, and share notes. Over the past five years, Tinderbox has gained an enthusiastic following amongst professionals and scholars of many fields, from art education to forensic psychiatry, from plotting thrillers to political analysis. It joins a simple, flexible, and open data model to rich visualization and representation facilities, seeking to place the tools of knowledge representation at the disposal of the people who need them most urgently and can benefit from them most directly. Tinderbox or Tinderbox upgrade is available for registered delegates of Hypertext 2008 with a discount of $50.

Hypertext has first 2 industrial co-sponsors

I've just got word that Hypertext has its first 2 industrial co-sponsors for the conference, Vivisimo and Eastgate. Vivisimo does enterprise search while Eastgate does hypertext tools and software for creating hypertext and literary writing. Eastgate has always been an industrial co-sponsor of Hypertext, led by its chief scientist, Mark Bernstein.

More sponsors to follow, so stay tuned!
