Data & Moving beyond web: #SemanticWeb

I was just speaking of how quickly the web has grown and how much information is available to learn and absorb. This compelled me to think about The Semantic Web yet again and how close we are, to actually realizing the world of creating a place that we can all utilize the amounts of information that's available in a uniform way.

Right now there is an abundance of information floating in cyberspace, so to speak. There's data bases, blogs, websites, wikis and the list goes on. There is so much data that the world is becoming inundated with information in all of its many forms.

The Emergence of the Semantic Web is a move in the direction of making this information & data uniform and accessible to all in an easy to utilize way.

I found a great Video that explains quite a bit about the evolution of the web and the future.

The Internet is constantly growing and changing however we tend not to notice, as the changes are mostly gradual.  However as you reflect on the subtle changes that have happened since the popularity of the web that emerged in the 90's, you will realized that there have been significant changes since that time. As one of the early adopters of the web and all that it had to offer in the 90's I have recently REALLY noticed the changes of late.  Early web, or Web 1.0 consisted of people really becoming comfortable with finding information and data online. Websites lack sophisticated graphics, were very word intense and very informational.  The emergence of Web 2.0 assumed that we have advanced beyond basic comforts of finding the information and pushed us into interaction with that data. Web 2.0 is considered the Social Media Age and we are swiftly coming to the peak of that phase.  Moving forward quickly into Web 3.0, or the Semantic Web, pushes us directly into the age of immersing ourselves in the Data. It is said that the web will become a place that allows data to interact with other data with the purpose of creating an easier and more personalize web experience. As a technologically forward thinking person AKA as a self admited nerd, I look forward to seeing and interacting with the Semantic Web.  I would love your feedback; post your thoughts in the comments section or on my Facebook Page. A parting thought: Web 1.0 introduced us to the Data Web 2.0 Help us engage with the Data Web 3.0 Data engages with more Data Watch the Video below to see more information about the transition from Web 1.0 - Web 3.0

Why QR codes—and the entire coming mobile web—matter to you.

We’re all aware that the mobile web is coming. Moore’s law will have its usual impact on hardware, and the price of smartphones and dataplans will drop to negligibly zero, as it did with feature phones prior. Shortly, the freebie that comes with our parent’s mobile plans will be able to access a robust, roving web.

Understanding QR codes & mobile tagging isn’t about trendy marketing, it’s about the bigger picture. It’s about starting to think about the new web. A web that takes into account where and when people access it. Read more at ericaglasier.com
