 TJL
 
+The motivating example for 
+
+The BuoyOING user interface is a focus+context hypertext interface
+that has been designed around the following three principles:
+
+- the user should always see all link targets
+  ("you should see where you can go")
+
+- the link transition should be fluidly animated
+  ("you should see where you do go")
+
+- the link transition and resulting view should make it obvious to the user how
+  to go back, without an explicit back button
+  ("once you get there, you should see how you can get back").
+  This implies bidirectional links.
+
+The links are between specific locations
