Here's where I hang myself because this is where I say, "the whole site works like this"--and on the next click you find that it doesn't.

The important things to note are that

  • most links are red--most visited links, or those "indexically" indicating previous passage are gray.
  • most links use the status bar on the bottom of the screen to tell you where they will take you.
  • some links will open a new window entirely--for two different "big nodes."
  • you should see two different "big nodes": "screen space" and "link functions"
  • when the "big nodes" open their windows, an alert box will tell you about it.
  • separate windows can be closed or minimized--and they may open minimized--so if an alert box says that a window has opened, check your taskbar for a second Netscape Window.
  • small windows will open now and again.
  • the web is kind of big--with two strands: practice and theory.

All that said, I have included a very rough "map of possible starts for you."

yes, I made it myself...
