– What is Web 3.0, and why is it a big deal?
In: 1354
I think most comments focus to much in the descentralized aspect of 3.0. I find easier to focus in other aspects about people communication inside the internet.
Internet is connection, a media. So, in a way, it’s final evolution should above humans to communicate better. Web1.0 allow specialized users (or corporations) to present their ideas and information through a webpage where other users could access. Web2.0 allow other users to create content for other users more easily (you no longer need your own webpage to share content). So, the next step should allow users to share even better.
How this will go? No way to know. Some people think that cross-platform ownership could allow this new step in evolution. Others focus on the decentralized aspect of crypto. One could argue that the “internet of things” (like your refrigerator ordering things) could be the next step. Augmented reality could also be the next step. Or new devices that allows you to share a hug, or smells, or textures.
There is no way to predict a revolution. But you will definitely identity it when it happens.
I think this obsession to label things before they happens is a mistake.
For me, each step allow users to express themselves better and more cheaper, so in response, a big bulk of content is added to the web. In that regard, streaming services could be considered 3.0 while 2.0 explosion where mostly written content. And following that logic web.4.0 could allow users to share and create in more profund ways.
My grain of sand.
