Abstract :
As more hypermedia information becomes available online, we are looking for new and better ways for users to interact with and to explore that information. The WIMP style of interaction is slowly becoming inadequate for users to make sense of the large amounts of information. New display configurations and input devices may help but usability with (abstract) hypermedia information is questionable. We describe an approach to study the effects of virtual environments characteristics on hypermedia information navigation. We focus on Web-based documents.
