What is HyperText and HyperMedia?

Hypertext is a text which contains links to other texts. The term was invented by Ted Nelson around 1965.

Hypertext is therefore usually non-linear (as indicated below).

Definition of Hypertext.
HyperMedia is not constrained to be text-based. It can include other media, EG: graphics, images, and especially the continuous media - sound and video. Apparently, Ted Nelson was also the first to use this term.

Definition of HyperMedia.
The World Wide Web (WWW) is the best example of hypermedia applications.
