Sounds like you got a pretty good idea of it RealTruth.
Just to add a few details of my own understanding on how it works...
Our mind is made up of two main components: 1. The subconscious or 'association generator', and 2. The conscious, or 'observer/ego'.
The subconscious cares not about right or wrong, what feels good or bad, it merely takes information, mixes it together, and spits out new ideas. The
conscious mind experiences and decides what's good or bad.
Now the thing is, the subconscious part of the mind is either connected to the subconscious minds of others, or we're all running the same program at
the same time because we seem spit out ideas in groups. Even when a few people have never heard of each other or their ideas, they might come up with
the same idea at the same time. Take
the 100th monkey effect for an example... Anyway, what we do is we
have these ideas, feelings, or whatever and we post them on the net which the webbot then picks up on. Most of the time we don't even realize it,
because the language the webbot picks up is mostly archetypal. It's as if we're speaking from two minds at the same time. The one we're aware of,
and the one we're not. The webbot guys then try and interpret this, although it's probably just as difficult as trying to interpret reverse
speech.
That however doesn't explain the prophetic nature of our archetypal ramblings unless you consider that the subconscious mind runs on a different
timeline than the conscious... a timeline that runs not parallel with but perpendicular to the timeline that we're consciously aware of... kinda like
this. The timeline is constantly being added to and updated by the collective
unconscious which is ever growing in complexity and sees all past and future at the same time. It doesn't insert things on the end of our timeline,
but in between currently existing (from it's perspective) events. So in a way we exist everywhere in time, we're just usually not aware of it.
We're only aware of our conscious minds, except in rare instances which if not understood properly can land one in the looney bin.
