Re-Connections is the title given to an interview by Michael Malone with Author and Science Historian James Burke on the 25th anniversary of his well-known series "Connections". The interview takes place in the San José Science Museum (in Silicon Valley). During the interview, Burke looks back and then forward to the program's digital incarnation (ie. this website), and then further again towards his current project: "The Knowledge Web" (http://k-web.org).

Wow, Burke correctly predicted how wireless communication would cause massive change in the third world in regards to the Arab Spring (Oh, the oil countries had oligarchs with money, but the population was truly 3rd world) and how the idea of mass customization is gaining traction in 2011 as a growing consumer trend.
