Danah Boyd has a nice post about architecture as persistant beta, and how buildings might be fashioned like websites, fitted with a benevolent dictator, as a participant in the building's evolution. she asks:

It's certainly an argument for modularity. Pods as upgrades, perhaps? This is half a thought at best, but better to post and revisit later, than forget entirely.
