Topic: Web 3.0 (Read 3105 times)
So is it fair to say that Satoshi Dice, MPEx, and Silk Road are examples of web 3.0? Maybe censorship resistance and no logins have something to do with it, a lot of applications will be able to achieve this by exploiting features of the blockchain. Could implementation of private arbitration be possible as an example of web 3.0 in the future?
Then bitcoin is web 4.0
web 4.0 = decentralized
web 4.0 = decentralized
Therefore, it's time to implement the Mesh based internet delivered by Zeppelins, or whatever that crazy idea was. Sounds as crazy as Bitcoin initially did, so it'll probably happen
How about satellite? If the sun will continue cooperating.
pretty soon we will have web 136.0
Version number inflation, the best kind of inflation!

Web 3.0 already has a definition. As others have stated, it refers to the "semantic web" where information is store/retreived in more or less raw state, and websites and pretty presentation is irrelevant. Web services, like APIs, DBPedia (Wikipedia in Raw Database Format), Google's login system for other other sites, things like that, are examples of this.
The objective of a semantic web is to allow services to "hook" into other services - think of creating macros that integrate the functionality of several websites in one stroke. A semantic web might allow you to have a digital personal assistant, like Siri, answer complex questions about real-time content without having to scrape content from webpages.
Instead of being served a website with a bunch of fancy formatting, advertisements, javascript, extra images, you would pull a raw article from the service, and plug it into whatever you need it for. In a theoretically fully semantic web, all things are clearly known for what they are, possibly by some ontology-based tagging like OWL.
It's very open, where the "survivors" are the ones who provide the best content, most consistently, with few to no strings attached.
After giving it some thought, though, I suppose Bitcoin could help facilitate this development in some way.

Although I like the idea, do you know what web 2.0 is?
It's user generated content, big websites like Youtube, Facebook and twitter that get their valuable content from users, not professional writers.
I agree on the fact that the term web 3.0 can be extremely powerful for Bitcoin.

You are correct today, but a few years ago everybody basically though that white background + lights colors + rounded corners = web 2.0.

haha exactly!!!
I like web 3.0 as well. It IS stupid, but that is exactly what the public likes. The dumbest lame shit ever. Look at whats playing at the local cineplex, whats on TV, Skrillex ffs. People like stupid shit. Its also easy to remember. I saw that article you linked earlier. good stuff!
Web 3.0 is already taken by Symantic Web.
After looking for a link it is apparent a number things are trying to use Web 3.0.

Then "Web 4.0" is fine.

Bitcoin could also offer relief to debt-stricken countries such as Cyprus.
Good old Max Keiser said that:
Quote
“Cyprus was Bitcoin's 'come to Jesus' moment and it's fitting it happened around the Easter Holiday,” Keiser said.“For millions of people around the world who have been victimized by banksters and their corrupt politician friends, the light bulb went off and they suddenly realized they could save their wealth by parking it in Bitcoin and no government or bankster could stop them.”
After the initial rush of interest in the Internet in the mid-1990s, and the follow-up boom of Web 2.0 and the growth of social networking, Bitcoin is the third and “perhaps the most disruptive wave of all,” Keiser said.
“This is Web 3.0,” he said. “For me it's extremely exciting since I pioneered the idea of virtual currencies back in the mid 1990s and have four US patents in my name covering virtual trading and virtual currencies. Most people I talked to back then about these ideas and the possibility that something like Bitcoin could exist didn't think it was possible. They were wrong.”

I agree... lets go with Mobile 3.0.
Let's call it Thunderballs 18.2; if people could just get behind that I think we could really rule the world.
web 3.0 is already an existing term, since years. it stands for the semantic web initiatives.
using the term web 3.0 in another context just makes you look stupid.
This.using the term web 3.0 in another context just makes you look stupid.
All of you are being ridiculous...
Bitcoin is obviously web 4.0

bitcoin is web 3.0
I've been saying it for months now.
right. that disqualifies the actual and several years old 3.0 definition. my bad... I've been saying it for months now.
web 1.0 = passive
web 2.0 = active
web 3.0 = payments???
I don't think web 3.0 is a good word to be used with bitcoin, it really makes no sense.

It doesn't need to make sense. It's marketing.
I never really liked the term Web 2.0 but I thought these terms were not related to the broad term of 'Internet' but only to websites 'n' stuff.
Bitcoin is much more than that but we could say part of Web 3.0 could be decentralized* payment systems.
*in theory though, Mt.Gox needs some proper competition

How about the old chestnut: "Web 3.11 for Workgroups"?
yup, I'd also like to see a web 3.0 that encompasses something like freenet on steroids (i.e. it scales) and communication/social networking with total control of own's privacy built-in, mesh networks (no more ISPs), and P2P currency of course.
what? web is a very generic term for very generic ensemble of technologies
why not call bitcoin a "Advanced Toaster 2.1"

There's some good posts in the thread, but I wanted to share my thoughts in it.
Web 1.0: Wow, I can make a website! Myspace, Xanga, Yahoo, Freewebs. Sites that tried to do too much with too little. And had too many options. MySpace themes were great for business, but terrible on everyone's eyes. Lots of ugly websites. The "good" looking websites had prettier buttons. Not a lot of emphasis on usability.
Web 2.0: Hey, one website to rule them all doesn't work so well? What if one website did something really well? Minus, say Facebook, which does everything (and honestly, though I hate to admit it, does it decently well). These are more minimal themes. More about looking pretty by being something than having curved borders and random pictures. Better organized data. Bit of HTML5/CSS3. Still using Flash.
