  text: Any academic conference requires the efforts of many people, from conference
    committee members to reviewers to authors to attendees. I would like to thank
    some of the people who helped organize ACM Hypertext 2006 here. Uffe K. Wiil did
    an excellent job as General Chair, taking care of the lion's share of the budgeting,
    planning, and organizing, from the hotel selection to the day-to-day logistics.
    Jessica Rubart was an extremely able and effective co-Program Chair. Niels Olof
    Bouvin, the Technical Services Chair, worked hard to set up, customize and maintain
    our review system. Publicity Chair David Millard ensured that word of the conference
    reached many people.The reviewers this year did an excellent job. We received
    41 full paper submissions, of which 12 were accepted. We also received 29 short
    paper submissions, of which 10 were accepted. As these acceptance rates indicate,
    we were unable to accept every paper we would have liked. We were particularly
    pleased to see a large number of papers that spoke to this year's theme of social
    networks and networking. This pays tribute to the breadth and flexibility of the
    community, something that many people note as one of the true strengths of this
    conference series.ACM Hypertext, as a conference series, is at a crossroads. When
    Uffe Wiil and I agreed to organize this year's event, we generated a quick preliminary
    call for papers with the headline "Quo Vadimus?" Looking at the submissions and
    accepted papers at this year (and, indeed the past several years) conference gives
    us some idea of how the Hypertext community has changed since the initial workshops
    of the late 1980's. Understanding this change can help us answer our question
    about where we are going. I hope we can use this event not only to further our
    understanding of the research aspects of our community, but also to plot a sustainable
    course for the future.
