 Don't fence me in: Supporting data mobility through the Gzz/Storm design
 ========================================================================
 
+Introduction
+============
+
+In today's networked world, data moves freely between computers:
+Text is copied from one document to another, documents
+are moved between folders,
+copied from one computer to another, sent by email,
+independently modified on two computers simultaneously,
+published on a server, moved to a different server, downloaded
+by a client. Yet, every time content is moved, links to it break
+in popular hypermedia systems.
