John Markoff writes in the NY Times that There is no Web 3.0. The funny thing about my summation last year (semantic fuzz than social discovery. Less artificial intelligence than augmentation. Wandering around the Web 2.0 Summit I saw more presentations using 3.0 than I can enunummerate. Some were about more immersive platforms, some desire the singularity, but most just wanted to be new and cool. John does end the article with a view similar to mine:
- "With Flickr you can find images that a computer could never find," said Prabhakar Raghavan, head of research at Yahoo. "Something that defied us for 50 years suddenly became trivial. It wouldn't have become trivial without the Web."Besides, Web 2.0 will be known as the name of a bubble. And 3.0 would only be a marketing disaster.
