interesting navigation

• New media is interactive. In contrast to old
  media where the order of presentation is fixed,
  the user can now interact with a media object. In
  the process of interaction the user can choose
  which elements to display or which paths to
  follow, thus generating a unique work. In this
  way the user becomes the co-author of the work.
