Contexto: «Web 2.0, an idea dating back to 2004, meant and means an internet of zippy connections where surfers can actually interact with one another, the epitome being, of course, YouTube or MySpace.
That’s opposed to what came before, Web 1.0, if you will, though no one calls it that, in which folks were happy to read content and send emails.
Now comes Web. 3. 0. It’s a term heard more and more these days as the new, different thing, a huge advance on 2.0»

A web3.0: «Web 3.0 is everything the internet will become once it achieves Web 2.0. Describing Web 3.0 is like describing the house of the future or the car of the future. It’s whatever the speaker wants it to be. (...) there is a growing consensus of what Web 3.0 will be, and perhaps the best way to describe it is as an intelligent internet universe. Think of it as a seamless network of databases that interact with great fluidity and have the capacity to not just crunch data but to interpret it.
Imagine databases that can learn, computers that can read web pages and understand them.
It’s what folks are calling the semantic web (from the Greek sémantikós, to have meaning).

Haverá uma web3.0? «“Masses of people, including vendors, technology proponents, analysts, bloggers and authors, are trying to use the Web 3.0 term to suit their needs and visions,” observes the Gartner Group, the consulting outfit. So far, it counts at least five different ideas out there. More are expected.
“The name Web 3.0 is just a holding page for the technologies to come,” says Jean-Paul Edwards, head of media futures at OMD UK Group. “We will never get to Web 3.0 because when the development comes, we will call them something else.”»
