Just when you were tiring of Web 2.0.
Web 2.0, which describes the ability to seamlessly connect applications (like geographic mapping) and services (like photo-sharing) over the Internet, has in recent months become the focus of dot-com-style hype in Silicon Valley. But commercial interest in Web 3.0 — or the “semantic Web,” for the idea of adding meaning — is only now emerging.
And the hype cycle starts anew - on the front page of the New York Times no less.
I look forward to the idea of extracting meaning from the web, but I believe that a lot of the old HTML web may prove to be difficult to extract meaning from. But microformats hold a lot of promise for the future.
