Web 2.0 is still alive & kicking but everyone is already focussing on Web 3.0. What is Web 3.0? Well, the old adage is true: a picture is worth a thousand words. With that said, I will let the following images and videos explain the differences between web 2.0 and web 3.0 otherwise known as the Semantic Web.

Final Thoughts:
No matter what the terms or how things are explained, one thing is certain: the future of the Internet and technology is extremely exciting! Things will only continue to evolve into more collaborative and personal ways which is great for everyone on a personal and professional level.

    Great post. Any time people ask me what web 2.0 is I have trouble explaining it to them without their eyes glossing over.

    Thanks! I try to create things that I would love to find and read so I appreciate your comments.
    I know less is more so I try not to flood posts with a wall of text and people love pictures and videos so I try to include plenty of visuals.

    Come by any time. Plenty more where that came from.
