> So, what's to stop someone today from making a modern hypercard clone?

One issue is the HyperCard fit holistically with Macs of the 80s and early 90s. A straight clone doesn't quite make sense today -- perhaps we need slightly different metaphors.

Last year I was a part of a research team that explored some of this. We ended up producing a system called Simpletalk [1], which is essentially a web-based system and scripting language inspired by Smalltalk and Hypercard. If you are interested, I also gave a talk [2] on some of the motivations and design behind the system.
