A Garden of Forking Paths
“As the Web becomes both interface and infrastructure for an Internet of objects we can barely imagine, what metaphors will shape our fate? Clearly, the sea level will rise, but our children need not drown nor suffer information anxiety. These are painful analogies born in the journey from past to present. They fail to anticipate the future.” (Peter Morville – ASIS&T Bulletin Feb/Mar 2006)
