It's like an analogy
In the beginning, there was nothing [ nothing ]
Then something really big and loud happened [ ARPANET]
Suddenly, there was a universe and a lot of matter floating around aimlessly [ UUnet, BBS ]
Which coalesced into protostars [ WWW hypertext ]
Which ate up more matter and became actual stars [ Netscape ]
The stars themselves had loose matter surrounding them [ Geocities pages ]
Some of this matter became loner asteroids or comets [ My first site ]
Some effectively attracted other matter and formed sustainable planets [ Amazon, Ebay ]
On a bigger scale, some stars got so big they became black holes. Affecting a pull on everything [ Google ]
In the far reaches of space, time went on and whole galaxies disappeared while new ones formed [ AOL, Yahoo!]
And ever so patiently, the universe kept on expanding. [ Consumer-driven Web 2.0 ]
That is, until one day, when it reversed direction and started to contract...
The vast space between things became slightly smaller [ Digg, del.icio.us ]
and big things got bigger [ YouTube, MySpace ]
What was once the strongest, starts to weaken [ Google? ]
And in the end, sometime soon or very far from now, there will be another really big and loud event and all of it will cease to exist [ ??? ]
