What is a hypertext? Give examples! Google again
Hypertext most often refers to text on a computer that will lead the user to other, related information on demand. Hypertext represents a relatively recent innovation to user interfaces, which overcomes some of the limitations of written text. Rather than remaining static like traditional text, hypertext makes possible a dynamic organization of information through links and connections (called hyperlinks). Hypertext can be designed to perform various tasks; for instance when a user "clicks" on it or "hovers" over it, a bubble with a word definition may appear, or a web page on a related subject may load, or a video clip may run, or an application may open.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext)
As you can see this definition of hypertext contains hyperlinks (written in blue). Therefore the definition is an example for a hypertext itself.
