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.

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.
How about:

web 1.0 = passive
web 2.0 = active
web 3.0 = P2P/decentralized/torrents/crypto currency/anonymity

If you think of Bitcoin as an essential money system for the internet, then it is a marketing vector that might work. Americans are inculcated from birth to label by brands rather than function.

But isn't Bitcoin the brand? I just think that web 3.0 doesn't really make me think Bitcoin, it just doesn't make sense, plus web 3.0 has been branded as mobile I think anyway.

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 thought that white background + lights colors + rounded corners = web 2.0.

Hey, if Web 3.0 marks a new generation of web content, I don't see why not.  I'd call this a pretty big leap for what's made possible via the Internet.

Look, I used to be a web developer. And I used to get pissed off whenever people brought up the term "web 2.0".

"Hey, I need you to make me a site, please make it look web 2.0"

 Lips sealed  Lips sealed  Lips sealed

But you know what? The press and general public lap that shit up and it caught on.

Today I came across this: http://rt.com/news/bitcoin-challenge-dollar-currency-121/

He is calling Bitcoin web 3.0.

I think if we collectively started to use this term, even though it's fucking stupid it could catch on.

If people start saying "Hey I need you to make a website, make sure it's web 3.0 compatible" then the battle is over.

To make this happen we need something. A visually recognizable aesthetic that is applied to the term "web 3.0". An example would be some kind of social payments system, or just an art style that can be associated with Bitcoin.

We need something on the same level as those fancy expensive design companies, the type that work for pepsi/coke/mcdonalds, serious brand shit.

It does't need to be expensive. phpBB pulled it off with their cutting edge subsilver theme when it was new and that is also free software.
