The Green Mountain blog can be read in various ways. First, it can be read chronologically as blog posts appear. They also can be read in different orders based on suggested sequences (which are offered under this menu) or by exploring hypertext links.
Hypertext and Hypertime
The posts will make good use of hypertext linking to either external web sites or, internal to the blog, other Green Mountain posts. Internal links may “backtrack” to a previous post or link forward to a future entry. Obviously, links that move into the future can only be created after the fact and require editing an old post. The use of hypertext linking means that after a time the blog can be read either as a linear narrative or as a kind of meandering, non-linear bushwhack through reflections that emerge in the allegory of Green Mountain. Repetition with difference will be a key feature of the blog: repeatedly describing the same places and intellectually climbing the same metaphorical mountain, but always with a difference — the difference of season, the difference of time of day, the difference of emotion, the difference of intellectual approach.
