The Web Bot is an internet prophetic computer program that predicts or forecasts future events on a global scale. It is actually the Asymmetric Language Trend Analysis Report, commonly known as The Web Bot. The Web Bot is the brainchild of Clif High, a reclusive genius with a strong background on linguistics and human behavioral studies.
Clif High has a patent on computer-assisted reading technology which allows reading from computer screens at up to 2000 words per minute. Reaching into other areas of hidden potential within language use by humans, he has been developing a system of software internet agents (like search engines use) and other proprietary processing methods to predict future events. The software project, begun in 1997, captures near-real-time changes in language patterns within internet discussions.
Then, employing radical linguistic techniques of his own devising, he develops a model which anticipates future events with some seeming accuracy. The processing has, at its core, a method of assigning emotional values to complex content and time carry-values to predict changes in future behavior based on how people are using language now.

ironically Asymmetric Language Trend Analysis Report = A.L.T.A.R.
Funny huh?
I think this guy, while certainly smart, is just a self-involved fantasist. These predictions of his never play out in a real sense, and are suitably vague not to have to be defended in real terms. I call BS on Clif, although I like his style.
If you haven't already, I strongly suggest that you listen to the whole interview in it's entirety. Clif has some interesting information to present.
