What pgrmdave said, sort of.
For inannimate objects I agree completely.

For biological beings, I believe things such as genetics, enviornment and past experiences all help shape behavior, but do not determine it. In other words, we can consiously break with our past experience.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
