Eric Schmidt Defines the World

So a head Googler just defined web 3.0 at a conference in Seoul, Korea.  Honestly, he did a pretty good job, although i personally disagree with his stance that mashups are the future. Seems to me that all he did was define 2.5 – mashups? They’re here now.

Frankly, i’m pretty sure he got 2.0 wrong too. He stats that AJAX is 2.0, i’ve always been taught that 2.0 is bigger than just the new capabilities available to programmers. That, in reality, social websites, user-generated content and the integration of users into websites with new angles.

…that, or the jackassess who claim the first comment on a post with the ever creative “FIRST!!!” post

I feel that the leap to 3.0 will be more grand and have a much larger reach. It will permeate our daily lives in a much deeper fashion than blogs, social networks and apps have currently done.
