Description

This work explores the usefulness of looking at very small aspects of human behaviour in order to understand computer-human interaction difficulties with hypertext. The focus is on both mechanical actions and talk as social action. While this approach has been used fruitfully to study human-human interaction, Gray has constructed a study of human interaction with machines.
