Computers are reading and writing tools that increasingly encourage readers to
find alternate links and paths in which more and more of the text occurs in the reader.
Computer text not only enables readers to insert their own writing, it dethrones authorial
authority and linearity as texts ruling structures by inserting a more democratic mix of
ongoing, alternative structures. In this regard, modern readers and writers of hypertext
will do pretty much what Reader-Response critics, Deconstructionists and Post-Modern
thinkers have theorized; 21st century readers will rewrite texts with their electronic eyes.
