Linear Documents are documents with a beginning, a middle and an ending and the author expects that they will be read in that order. The author will assume that the reader has a certain knowledge up to a certain point in the document.
Non Linear Documents are documents which can be read out of sequence, eg a text book or reference book. A topic may be looked up and read and completely understood without the requirement of reading the previous chapter or topic. Most websites are non-linear.
Web pages use hypertext links to take the reader to different packages of information. The reader can choose to click on the hyper text link or to continue on the same piece of text.

I really found this site useful and I am sure that I’ll use it in the future. http://www.blogrolling.com/ This is a tool for managing a linklist in a blog. Very useful for recording multiple links and making it easier to find them later.
Blogs have a tendency to be linear.
