Must-read for Anglophiles: Suw Charman (Chocolate and Vodka) evokes the weight of history in Britain. Her essay* is lovely in itself and makes generous use of hyperlinks to information on various places she mentions.
It’s amazing how much hyperlinks add to the texture and usefulness of non-fiction.
Another place that really gets hyperlinks right: the Pepys Diary blog.
Footnotes? Bah, humbug (except for my footnote, below.) Long live the hyperlink!
* Suw’s article appears in the exciting new travel-history-culture-food-fusion blog from Tom Bridge and Robert Daeley—-Four Corners–I really recommend it.
