Web 3.0: An extrapolation
From a fruitful conversation with my colleague David Warner:
- Web 1.0 = the read web
- Web 2.0 = the write web (remember how hard this used to be, just a few years ago?)
- Web 3.0 = the machine-readable web ("semantic web" – RDF, microformats, etc.)
- Web 4.0 = the machine-writable web (!) Is this AI? What implications would this have?
- Web 5.0 = ?

I'd love Web 3.0 but will it be really possible to dominate Chaos?

Hi Gina - I hadn't thought about it being spam - dang!
sys.out - Chaos - perhaps that is the "?" in Web 5.0. Perhaps it is chaos in a good (evolutionary) sense.

Funny how the Internet works in emergent stages. We are currently part way into Web 2.0 AND Web 3.0, it isn't going in a straight line.
Web 4.0 - Let me choose what program/form/website I'm going to use and just work! The reverse of Web 3.0 (let me have my data where I want, 4.0 would be let me put my data how I want). This smells of OpenID, YubNub, and WebOS in general.

Hi Stephen - Yeah I've got to check out OpenID - it's been hitting the headlines of late.
