Web 3.0

I believe that in the near future we will be noticing many differences with the web. The new advancements the web will make are being called by experts "web 3.0". As technology keeps changing and because the past evolutions of the different stages of the web (1.0 and 2.0) were slow revolutionary movements, it is difficult to expect exactly what web 3.0 will be like.

It might be safe to say that web 3.0 will be able to better help people obtain information and complete daily activities. Research has been conducted about "smart homes" in which simple tasks such as turning on the lights, stove, or ordering new groceries, can be done electronically through a few pushes of a button in one's home. Web 3.0 might also allow people to make multiple searches on the web at once, such as travel decisions or daily activities, and then learn from those searches to make them simple for users in the future.

Though these examples of web 3.0 are abstract for now, what is certain is that web 3.0 will provide web users with easier a more personalized access to information.
