    Abstract
    Presents a 3 dimensional model of information exploration. An attempt is made to clarify the respective roles of the human and the system in browsing and information retrieval, and to characterise alternative interaction styles to maximise retrieval effectiveness. Illustrates the applicability of the model of exploration by describing 8 paradigmatic cases of information exploration that represent different vertices of the model. Describes initial experiment that attempted to assess the pragmatic impact of various combinations of exploration features. Discusses methods for integrating hypermedia and information retrieval into general information exploration systems and discusses some of the processes that people use in information exploration. Argues for the development of hybrid information systems combining exploration features in the most appropriate way according to the task needs of users

    Abstract
    Discusses key aspects of hypermedia usability in the light of the difficulties, and similaries, between the design of hypermedia applications and that of more convential user interfaces. Focuses on the role of analogy and of dynamism in hypermedia interface design, with particular emphasis on the advanteges and pitfalls of using metaphor. The concluding section summaries possible future hypermedia usability research.
