The feed is described as knowing what you need before you do. This is what the feed is really doing. The corporation then can tell the manufactures what to make because the corporation already knows what they want. For example, they made Link, Quendy, Calista and all the other people already know what they want before they even know what they want. The corporation is putting them in a "catalog". They are making you want things you don't even want cause they already made you think that you want it. Yeah, like in the book, they are categorizing the people so, it would be easy to make things so they can buy them. The more things the people buy, the more money the corporation and manufacture gets. The feed, by doing this, they make a lot of money from "making" people. What I mean by "making", is that the corp. is making Link, Marty, Calista, and all the other people. Titus and his friends doesn't get the freedom to be whatever they want. They don't get to pick what they want and be who they want to be. They are like being 'brainwash' into wasting their money on things that are 'suppose' to be their type. But maybe it's not because the corp. is brainwashing them into wanting the item when they enter the store. They did this by having musics that draws people to the store and having celebrity model or advertise their clothing, even though it is ugly, people want it because it is 'in'.
Missing the feed for Titus is like he "carried his lungs in a suitcase and opened it to breathe". What I think Titus is saying is that he can't live without the feed. He's saying that the feed is like his lungs that he needs to have them everyday to survive. He needs the feed to live. It's like using the feed is like breathing. If he doesn't breathe he dies... if he doesn't have or use the feed he's going to die or not survive well with out the feed. The feed is like a part of his and their life. It's like when I don't get to use the computer at my house; Missing the Computer. It's not like if I don't get to use the computer or have a computer that I'm not going to live. I can live with out a computer, I'll just need to find another way to live my life. All I think Titus is saying is that he can't live without the feed; it's games, movies, music, chatting, and all the other great things that feed does.

They have enter a time of calamity... time of disaster. What this means is that the feed is going to destroy them some day. It is going to take over their body like how it has already taken over Violet's body. The feed is going to make them go crazy and do crazy things. It is going to take over the world. SAVE THE PEOPLE, SAVE THE WORLD! Everthing the people is going to use is going to come from the feed. The feed is going to be their everthing; their life.
