This document discusses the social networking of things and the evolution of things. It describes how things can have social needs and intelligence ranging from no intelligence (IQ=0) to more intelligence than users. Things are becoming more like APIs that can be accessed on the web. Hardware platforms are bringing things and software together, and open hardware is allowing things to be designed in a modular way using common components and online communities. The document outlines a process for compiling hardware from crowd design to mass production. It also discusses how products can evolve through a process similar to biological evolution, involving massive scale, open source technologies, makers, and mutations.
