DESCRIPTION
This is the presentation i did for the Korean Broadcasting Corporation. They asked me to discuss web 3.0 - i responded that i didnt know for certain that another version of the web was really a useful concept, but that if we had to use such terms, i think it would draw on the sets of concepts in this presentation.

“The future is already here - it is just unevenly distributed” -
William Gibson
Many webs, many stories• Web 1.0 - the read web

• Web 2.0 - the read/write web– RSS, Ajax, SOAP, XML– Uploading your own kitten
• Web 3.0 - the decentralised read/write web– XFn, FOAF, A-GPS, Wifi,– Connecting to others via your kitten

• Direct result of broadband •Migration from client side processing to server side computing • Coming of age: Web ‘page’ metaphor no longer makes any sense • “Doorways” & “Portals” become “Streams” & “Rivers”
Web 3.0 Synonomous with Semantics
• Aggregation is core to web 3.0 innovation
• Machine readable, human meaningful
• Decentralised resources
• Any access point
• Threaded relevance
• Unlimited meta data
“Google, we have a problem”• Persistently relevant - do such conditions ever exist?• Finding over searching - do humans trust machines?• Semantic relevance relies on decent metadata - but
who creates it?

MetacrapDoctorow's seven insurmountable obstacles
to reliable metadata are:• People lie1. People are lazy2. People are stupid3. Mission Impossible: know thyself4. Schemas aren't neutral5. Metrics influence results6. There's more than one way to describe
something
Whoa! Too much information.
Managing meta-crap• Location data might be a good starting point to think
about semantic data
• Collaboration may be good way to gather meta data
• From a user experience perspective location based services resemble meaningful connections generated by machines
• Despite meta data crisis, we can simulate and infer reliability, via recommendation, referral & trusted sources
Post from where I am to where my people be
Collaborative Meta Data
Artful Mapping / Meaningful GPS
Mobile Mashups
Human meaningful• Discovery: friends in high places
• Cultural identity: be yourself
• Always on: All I care about all of the time
• Live now: disrupt physical limits– where am I? where are you?
• Omnipotence: Participate from wherever I am
• Omnipresence: Niche networks to networked niches
Transformation Takeaway• Think about where your users really are
– visiting other sites via SERPs– socialising in networks– reading blogs– mobile
• Why are they visiting these other destinations?– What tools do they need?– What platforms are they on? – What can you make use of?– APIs, apps, blogging, video, socnets, mobile
