The Web is reaching version 3

I presented CubicWeb at several conferences recently and I used the following as an introduction.

Web version numbers:

• version 0 = the internet links computers
• version 1 = the web links documents
• version 2 = web applications
• version 3 = the semantic web links data [we are here!]
• version 4 = more personnalization and fix problems with privacy and security
• ... reach into physical world, bits of AI, etc.

In his blog at MIT, Tim Berners-Lee calls version 0 the International Information Infrastructure, version 1 the World Wide Web and version 3 the Giant Global Graph. Read the details about the Giant Global Graph on his blog.
