What is Web 3.0?

May 27, 2009

There has been alot of debate about what Web 3.0 is and when it will arrive. In a post on ReadWriteWeb titled,  Web 3.0 or Not, There is Something Different About 2009, the debate continues. Also see the embedded slideshare. Some important trends in 2009 are:

  • Open data
  • Structured data -> smarter
  • Filtering content
  • Real-time
  • Personalization
  • Mobile (location-based, so you could say that’s smarter use of data too)
  • Internet of Things (the Web in real-world objects).

Linked data and Google snippets are noted as part of the trend. It sounds like mashups, web services and physical world integration are leading to a defacto Web 2.0 world. The implications for Health 2.0 will be the topic of a future post.
