An intangible realm of bites and bits, ones and zeros.
Ideally one would have a 360 degree view, taking the characteristics of a sphere.
If knowledge is power, and the internet runs on electricity, emitted light seems like a viable metaphor for "knowledge".
The internet is mainly about interaction, the more you know, the "brighter" you are.
But its not white light, every object has its own certain ora and upon interaction you take a small bit of its characteristics, sort of like mixing paints.
As you interact and move the objects, their color becomes richer, but if left alone they start to dim out. >>If you interact alone, aka "study", your personal ora becomes richer, but if not, you become dated and dim out. And the timer starts upon opening
Upon interaction with one another the colors mix, mixing the projected light. Eventually if stimulated and mixed enough a white light will be created. A "flash" or "explosion" effect could occur and youll see the trace of the "orb" absorbing into the landscape itself.
If you interact with the internet enough, and become "enlightened", eventually you will write a blog or post a comment or a picture, and become a part of the internet. Your energy immortalized into the deep deep archives of the internet.
Will it ever fill up?

i like the thought of the lights of the globes changing colors. Your intentions of content are very precise?
Your digital landscape is very interesting. Having the orbs brighten and dim depending on the levels of interaction is a nice touch. You talk about "your orb" becoming brighter if one chooses to undergo personal study. Will this be shown with multiple clicks on one orb? Also, i think your first sentence about the ones and zeros could fit well with our orbs, if u were able to maybe apply a filter over each orb so 1s and 0s could scroll constantly. It's just an idea, so feel free to use it or disregard it. =P
