Tristan here from Apture. Great idea on the bibliography.. I saw your comment on Will Richardson's Weblogg-ed blog about Apture and wanted to give you a warm welcome to the Apture community. Please send us feedback any time at feedback@apture.com
Per your comment about HyperCard in 1987, that's exactly the sort of thing we're trying to accomplish with Apture. We're trying to say that the web could be a whole lot more than flat pages of text connected by links to more flat pages, it should be a rich, interactive multimedia-rich experience, much like HyperCard offered way back in the 80s. I grew up on HyperCard and know Bill Atkinson (the creator) personally. I think it was a key contribution to the field of interactive information browsing, and we're just trying to take all those ideas to the next level.
