The internet is a bit like the Collective Unconscious. What if it came to life as some kind of intelligent being? Perhaps Google is working on it; I wouldn't be surprise.
The Web certainly helps link us to one another, a more conscious collective unconscious.
An interesting site for folks interested in Jungian books is http://www.librarything.com. There are about 500,000 people in the community who list their books, provide reviews, make recommends.
When you put it all together you get some interesting statistics:
