In fact, substitute "intertextual" for "hypertextual," and you don't need computers at all. If you're a good English teacher, your students are already doing this kind of writing, and blogs provide an exciting new authentic genre for this work, and easier access to an audience. If you don't know how to construct your pedagogy to generate this kind of student work, just turning on blogs is not going to solve the problem.
