“Memex”Vannevar Bush introduced the concept of what he calledthe memex during the 1930s, which is a microfilmbased"device in which an individual stores all hisbooks, records, and communications, and which ismechanized so that it may be consulted withexceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlargedintimate supplement to his memory." He wanted thememex to behave like the "intricate web of trailscarried by the cells of the brain"; essentially, causingthe proposed device to be similar to the functions of ahuman brain. The important feature of the memex isthat it ties two pieces together. Any item can just selectanother immediately.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vannevar_Bush
