Memex is a hypothetical electromechanical device for interacting with microform documents and described in Vannevar Bush's 1945
article "As We May Think". Bush envisioned the memex as a device in which individuals would compress and store all of their books,
records, and communications, "mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility". The individual was
supposed to use the memex as an automatic personal filing system, making the memex "an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory".
The name memex is a portmanteau of memory and expansion.

The concept of the memex influenced the development of early hypertext systems, eventually leading to the creation of the World
Wide Web, and personal knowledge base software. The hypothetical implementation depicted by Bush for the purpose of concrete
illustration was based upon a document bookmark list of static microfilm pages and lacked a true hypertext system, where parts of
pages would have internal structure beyond the common textual format.
