Net 3.0 - Invasion of Intelligent Robots

Get Feed

Web 2.0 is powered by the collective workforce of multiple users.  Given an opportunity of self-expression and communication, people are actually volunteering to build the content.

It was expected that webmasters would apply the traditional Semantic Web technologies (RDF, OWL, etc.) to the content of websites, but this simply doesn't happen. These advanced formats, enjoyed so much by academics, in the "real world" proved themselves to be too demanding for web developers.

In Web 2.0 Social Networking websites, the tagging depends on User's participation. But more often than not, Users just don't to be bothered or simply don't know How to tag, even when they want to. As a result, semantic information received from popular tagging is of low quality, inconsistant, and not very reliable.

It seems that Net 3.0 will be powered by massive efforts of Intelligent Robots, rather than by the collective efforts of Users.

To some degree Intelligent Robots are already at work.  For example, it seems to be that in Twine.com the robots are automatically tagging people's posting based on semantic analysis of the text.

      You are right. Humans will not be entering strong identifiers into web pages. That's why we need strong natural language processing, context understanding and other tech.

      As for writing, Zemanta is here.
      For browsing AdaptiveBlue and Headup are making some progress...
