As promised I am going to be posting facts and figures about Web 3.0, just to get our minds moving. Here's the first as quoted from the oracle of oracles... Wikipedia.
"Nova Spivack defines Web 3.0 as the third decade of the Web (2010–2020) during which he suggests several major complementary technology trends will reach new levels of maturity simultaneously including:
- transformation of the Web from a network of separately siloed applications and content repositories to a more seamless and interoperable whole.
- ubiquitous connectivity, broadband adoption, mobile Internet access and mobile devices;
- network computing, software-as-a-service business models, Web services interoperability, distributed computing, grid computing and cloud computing;
- open technologies, open APIs and protocols, open data formats, open-source software platforms and open data (e.g. Creative Commons, Open Data License);
- open identity, OpenID, open reputation, roaming portable identity and personal data;
- the intelligent web, Semantic Web technologies such as RDF, OWL, SWRL, SPARQL, GRDDL, semantic application platforms, and statement-based datastores;
- distributed databases, the "World Wide Database" (enabled by Semantic Web technologies); and
- intelligent applications, natural language processing, machine learning, machine reasoning, autonomous agents."
Now let's see if we can find a tech to explain some of this. Actually, you can find the rest of the article here...
