Exploring various levels and the surface of information in multimedia, linking information through pathways, and organising it within a basic structure allows it to be put to better use and build a convenient, simple, and easy-to-interact multimedia environment.

Integrating various media together seamlessly facilitates effective use of text, graphics, animation, video, and audio through input and output devices, making for a better multimedia.

Until now, the information contained in any medium had a linear structure, i.e., it was not governed at the user’s end but structured by the designer. What makes multimedia so different is that the entire information can be designed as per the user’s need, i.e., on his request for a story, a message, or an idea. The information is no longer linear as the user has freedom of navigation, he can choose his own path. At the same time, the medium has excellent linking potential.
