The document proposes a new universal medium that unifies existing storage and indexing systems through an open hypertext network. This new system would tear down walls between different applications and allow for easy access and interlinking of billions of stored documents. The author predicts that within 40 years, hundreds of millions of users will be able to access trillions of linked documents from hundreds of thousands of file servers simultaneously. This new system could bring about a new Golden Age by providing a simplified universal way to access and share information.
