At its core BrowseUp's oLink technology enables users to create virtual links from any existing online document, and "write web", instead of just "read web". This document that has "users links" on it, can be ANY PAGE out there!
Although these virtual links are inline links, they really reside on
an external "link server" , and the original document is not changed.
These virtual links can point from both pictures and text within the
page, to associatively connected information like other URL`s, the
users local files (which are automatically published), and to new
pages written on the fly by the user.
Other users in the group can view these virtual links while they
access the URL "from" where the links point.
You can download a sample client and work with a link-server set up on
the internet, or run a "link server" at your institution (LAN based)
by downloading the Server (with a dedicated client in it- requires Oracle DB 8.1.6).
You can actually make links from any point within the page you are
viewing now, to any information you think is relevant....Your Word
file, a "NEW-URL" which you author while making the link(and then is
uploaded and becomes a new web page, or an existing web page that you
have seen in the past.
