Web 3.0

Web 3.0 won't look much different than what we know today as Web 2.0. The major defining difference will be where the web appears rather than what its used for. Today's society has developed the need for constant web access and we are seeing more and more devices that are web-capable. As we fall further into web 3.0 we will begin to see the web popping up in more places. For example, future versions of the web will be available to us through devices like a tiny head-mounted display, as pictured in Johnathan Strickland's 'How Web 3.0 will work' article. However, where we will find the web won't be the only advancement in the web. Web 3.0 will be smarter. As more and more people become accustomed to tags, the web will begin to learn how to join tags in order to give the user a more defined, specific, outcome specific to the user. For example, if you are trying to plan a trip and you want to order tickets online. Web 3.0 will not only look at what tickets are available, it will take into consideration the weather of that week, hotel reviews and availability, flight times, rental car prices, and much more. The web will work mush faster for the user. It will cut research time down and help make life generally easier for the web surfing fanatic. .....well now-a-days, who doesn't live through the web.
