Is content less important than the links that help to find it ?

An interesting conversation, about hypertext on the internet, is happening (in French… sorry) on Francis Pisani's blog, Transnets.

In his last post, he talks about, Press without Gutenberg, the book of Bruno Patino (publisher of Le Monde's website) and Jean-François Fogel (journalist). He quotes them :

"Information on the Internet is less important that the links that help to find it."

What do you think about it ?
