Abstract

In the web designers’ community, the single-page design (one-page design or pageless design) seems to be the revolution of the last years, professing the disappearance of hypertext. As a transition between the tradition of hypertext and the novelty of single-page design, this period gives us the opportunity to study the relationship between the emergence of a techno-semiotic device and the value systems associated to readers and web designers. Our aim is to show how the abandon of hypertext in favour of single-page design reflects a change of thinking the hypertext, no longer seen as an interconnected world described by scientists, but as a single reading/writing experience commented by users.
