 | Web 2.0, a phrase coined by O'Reilly Media in 2003 and popularized by the first Web 2.0 conference in 2004 , refers to a perceived second generation of web-based communities and hosted services - such as social-networking sites, wikis and folksonomies - which facilitate collaboration and sharing between users. O'Reilly Media titled a series of conferences around the phrase, and it has since become widely adopted.
Web 3.0 is not yet fully defined, but the intent is to categorize the next quantum evolution of the web. | | | |

 | Web 2.0 saw the centralization of web traffic to accessible platforms for publishing, such as Blogs, Wikis, and Youtube.
With the massive explosion of user-generated content came the massive quality issues.
* Wikipedia, while having a huge quantity of content, has been criticized for trustworthiness. Its model was great for generating content quickly, but not for creating an authoritative source.
* The Blogging Community are now a tight-knit group of publishers, who bascially endorse each others work. Blogs paved the way for many prolific writers to be heard, but still dumb ideas get promoted while great ideas remain hidden.
* Social networking sites are great for keeping in touch with old friends, but still is not a great way to connect with new friends.
The term Web 3.0 simply encapsulates efforts to fix problems with the current web.
While it would be impossible to predict the evolution of the next web, here are a few possibilities:
* The semantic web is an effort to convert the web from documents to data. The idea is improved accessibility as data can be read programs, while documents only by humans. I don't think it can solve the QUALITY problem because machines can't read mindes.
* Service Oriented Architectures and Web-services, bringing better interconnectivity between machines and programs, will somehow present information better. Again, I don't see it, as the WEB is about people!

 | Web 2.0 is often known as the read/write web, because the accessibility to writers has really mushroomed.
Web 3.0 will be where there will be so many written content, that quality issues will need to be solved, with the massive quantity for all. | | | |

 | Web 3.0 is a term that has been coined with different meanings to describe the evolution of Web usage and interaction among several separate paths. These include transforming the Web into a database, a move towards making content accessible by multiple non-browser applications, the leveraging of artificial intelligence technologies, the Semantic web, or the Geospatial Web. | | | |
