While I may soon need another source, right now I’m glad I use Twitter. Today, I saw a tweet from @ToddGilmore that mentioned Web 3.0. It was in the context of leaders learning to use social media, but that’s all I could figure out in terms of defining “Web 3.0.”
To arrive at a definition for Web 3.0, we should start by defining Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. Web 1.0 was the beginning of the Internet. Examples included the type of website that one might have posted as a school assignment in the early 1990s. It typically followed the format (and included the phrase) “Hi, my name is (Your Name Here.) This is my website about Topic X” immediately followed by what was essentially an article about Topic X. The information was often accompanied by a graphic (or several) and a primitive MIDI (music) file playing in the background. I may be exaggerating a bit, but that’s the clearest example I can think of.
Web 2.0 is what a lot of people have come to use the Internet for now. It’s the interactive websites that allow us to share the information about ourselves and the world that we might have used to create Web 1.0 (or new information.) Examples include Facebook, MySpace, Wikipedia, YouTube, Twitter, blogs, etc.
Likewise, Web 3.0 is an extension of the interactive nature of the Internet that is developing through Web 2.0. Many experts say that it will be focused on and tailored to the individual. It will most likely have an artificial intelligence-like component now referred to as “the semantic web” with which people can search in human terms such as questions and requests as opposed to keywords, as well as a great deal of personalization and even more mobility than there is now.
New Fact: Web 3.0 is the next wave of Internet advancements. It is expected to be user-centered, more human-like, and highly portable.
