The Garden of Forking Paths

This was an interesting story.

While reading this it was a little difficult to apply it to what we're learning in class immediately, but upon rereading it, it becomes a little clearer. The book that man wrote was his labyrinth. He'd written it to be one, to have deep paths in the ways you could read it, almost like those "choose your own adventure" stories.
In a way, that's what the structure of some websites become. They can be confusing and difficult to navigate, yet that's just how the site works. Then again, a labyrinth doesn't always have to be so difficult, so perhaps its just the way it's interpreted by the user.
