It's a perfect fit. The Web, then, teaches us that everything is connected. And like all creations it reflects its inventor in some ways. The wires and computers in which it consists are, as Berners-Lee points out, like the nerves and synapses that make up our brains, or they could be compared to the rivers and roads that connect villages, cities and towns. Or, the Web could be a map of the movements we make between each other forming, solidfying, disintegrating and renewing relationships.
Physical actions lead to emotional attachments.
Paths followed on the Web are like thoughts repeated in our brain. We follow them. They become familiar. We learn them. Although we could predict that the Web would allow us to connect to others, we could not predict that we would begin to learn more about ourselves by studying it.
