Web 3.0


WEB 3.0?

Web 3.0 is something called the Semantic (Relating to meaning in language or logic) Web, a term coined by Tim Berners-Lee, the man who invented the (first) World Wide Web. In essence, the Semantic Web is a place where machines can read Web pages much as we humans read them, a place where search engines and software agents can better troll the Net and find what we're looking for. "It's a set of standards that turns the Web into one big database," says Nova Spivack, CEO of Radar Networks, one of the leading voices of this new-age Internet.

But some are skeptical about whether the Semantic Web or at least, Berners-Lee's view of it—will actually take hold. They point to other technologies capable of reinventing the online world as we know it, from 3D virtual worlds to Web-connected bathroom mirrors. Web 3.0 could mean many things, and for Netheads, every single one is a breathtaking proposition.

Web 3.0: When Web Sites Become Web Services

When you are typing an e-mail, what the subject of the e-mail is, and be able to suggest websites and books as well as documents, photos and videos you have saved that may be relevant to that topic.

It will be achieve this by virtue of the inherent 'intelligence' in the underlying architecture of the internet, they say. In other words, the web is becoming smart.

A prime example of a Web 3.0 technology is 'natural-language search', which refers to the ability of search engines to answer full questions such as 'Which US Presidents died of disease?'. In some cases, the sites that appear in the results do not reference the original search terms, reflecting the fact that the web knows, for instance, that Reagan was a US President, and that Alzheimer's is a disease.

CONCEPTUAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

WEB 1.0, WEB 2.0 AND WEB 3.0 The initial web that was invented along with the introduction of Internet was Web1.0 [8] where development focused on the back end or infrastructure of the web. Programmers created protocols and code languages.  

The next decade was Web 2.0 introduced by Tim O’Rielly where focus is shifted to front end. Still we have not finished with web 2.0 and Web 3.0 is arrived.  It is about adding context to personalization.

Web 1.0 Static pages instead of dynamic user-generated content.
  • The use of framesets.
  • Proprietary HTML extensions.
  • GIF buttons, typically 88x31 pixels in size promoting web browsers and other products.
  • HTML forms sent via email. A user would fill in a form, and upon clicking submit their email client would attempt to send an email containing the form's details.

Web 2.0 websites allow users to do more than just retrieve information. They can build on the interactive facilities of "Web 1.0" to provide "Network as platform" computing, allowing users to run software-applications entirely through a browser
Web 3.0 combines semantic Web with Web 2.0’s tagging culture. It will use internet to make connections with information
