    &lt;blockquote cite="http://interconnected.org/home/2007/12/28/wrapping_up_2007"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The technological future of the Web is in micro and macro structure. The approach to the micro is akin to proteins and surface binding--or, to put it another way, phenotropics and pattern matching. Massively parallel agents need to be evolved to discover how to bind onto something that looks like a blog post; a crumb-trail; a right-hand nav; a top 10 list; a review; an event description; search boxes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
