The Web can connect people from across the world together. It was the only way a connection could be made between Caitlin and the entity. What I didn't understand was why a manifestation of the internet in China's internet would be interested about signals from a blind girl's only chance at seeing. The signals it would have received would be mixed and not interpretative at the comprehension level of the entity at the time. There is also little to describe why the entity would be interested with signals coming from around the world. Only after Caitlin can see is there a plausible explanation for the presence of the entity. The signals from her Eye-pod device would be transferring video signals which could be interpreted be the entity. This is how the entity connects to Caitlin. Through this and Caitlin's ability for complex math, the two are able to connect and form a bond that ends the book.
