"Feed" Blog

"I don't know when they first had feeds. Like maybe, fifty or a hundred years ago. Before that, they had to use their hands and their eyes. Computers were all outside the body. They carried them around outside of them, in their hands, like if you carried your lungs in a briefcase and opened it to breathe"(Feed 47)

In this passage, Link is referring to the feed as a source of all life. With out it, it seems that the feed is useless. I'm curious to know that maybe later in the book, if the feed will have taken over minds or other people's thoughts. The feed is a second life. It is the creator and planner implanted into the human mind. And in the passage, Link lets us know that everyone relies on this feed. He makes it seem that people can not live with out it. The book is filled with knowledge that the feed can translate and there are many questions to ask as to how the loss of the feed will effect Link's mind. 

Will this loss of the feed effect the people around Link later on?

Does the feed rule all of human intelligence? 

How can someone who's grown up with the feed live without it?

Will the feed keep expanding and controlling people?
