With very, very rare exceptions, nobody uses a computer network strictly by themselves, as an individual who is not interacting in some way, shape or form with other people. whether that's just reading the words they've written, collaborating on a task, or sharing a conversation, networking is about people interacting with people. and if it's true that pet owners and their pets really start to resemble each other, in both appearance and behavior, over time, how do our networks resemble us -- and how do we resemble our networks? is that a one-way effect, or do builders, users and the networks co-evolve and co-adapt to and with each other?
