Google Defines Web 3.0, Calls Web 2.0 ‘Marketing Term’

Is Web 2.0 already on the way out? At a digital something or other conference in Seoul, Google’s CEO was asked what the company thought Web 3.0 will look like. After admitting that Web 2.0 is just a silly marketing term designed to make AJAX and related technologies seem chic, he let loose Google’s vision of a Web 3.0 world.

Bottom line: Web 3.0 means pieced together applications, mobile apps and apps that can be spread via social networks and the like. (See Facebook.)

Web 3.0 here we come!

Doesn’t googles version of 3.0 sound like a heck of a way to spread viruses and malware across the entire spectrum of internet users? At any junction you can get infected and spread it to others by sharing content.

As i understood it that’s what web 2.0 was, bringing your desktop online and linking your data and usage across devices you use and making it “shareable” across your network.

Isn’t it kinda lazy to steal the definition of something, and then call it dead?
