Assignment 9 - Web 3.0

After researching what web 3.0 will be like for some time, the plans for what is ahead looks quite promising. For example, web searches in Google will be much more efficient than ever. You will be able to type out entire sentences instead of just keywords to find what you are looking for. It does not stop there, your browser will also be able to learn more about you by the searches that you make on a daily basis in hopes that it will be able to provide you with suggestions automatically for anything that you want to do. Many experts are saying that while web 2.0 mainly uses the internet for results, web 3.0 will be like a giant organized database where information is pulled from. How they predict that this is going to work is that each user will have their own ‘profile’ based on what they search for and this will allow browsers to assist in suggesting things based on those results. So basically it will be similar to how Pandora tailors music to the user based on what kind of music they like or dislike but it will be for the entire internet. Another speculation is that web pages will no longer be based around html and instead they will be based around a completely new unnamed language. Some experts have already begun talking about what is beyond web 3.0. They say that web 4.0 is going to take everything much further and will be based around a three-dimensional environment. This means that users will have the choice to browse the web through a first person experience or you will be able to experience the web through a digital representation of yourself called an avatar. Experts predict that every single electronic device will come with internet capabilities which will cause people to constantly be connected to the internet, making it easier for browsers to get to know the user by electronically observing his/her activities.
