Industry experts predict the next iteration of the Web will likely take hold around the year 2015. From Web 1.0 (the “Static Web”) - where surfers browsed through static, hyperlinked Web pages with little to no interaction to Web 2.0 (the “Social Web”) - an interactive and more social experience for users who are consumed with electronically connecting to other users. Web 3.0, or the “Semantic Web,” is touted as the next generation of the Web where information will be stored and categorized in a way that will allow computers to understand the content and information similar to a human. Web 3.0 will make wide use of artificial intelligence to “teach” the computer the meaning of data, which will in turn, organize the data into an intelligent and useable format. This is expected to make search retrieval more efficient by giving users just the information they want. While we’re still a few years away from the transition from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0, some companies are leading the way in this transformation. For a glimpse into Web 3.0, Thought Pick provides a nice review of some of the various Semantic Web applications that are already in use.
