Sad Web 2.0 Losers Ready for Web 3.0 (As Soon As They Figure Out What It Is)
Failed Internet mogul Alan Meckler is really excited about the Semantic Web, aka Web 3.0! And who can blame him, since he pretty much failed at versions 1.0 and 2.0? Meckler, who has run a passel of third-rate Internet websites since the early '90s, when he was best-known for trade titles like CD-ROM Librarian, now calls his company WebMediaBrands. Laurel Touby's Mediabistro.com is part of his collection. The boa-bedecked editrix reports breathlessly on Twitter that her boss has called the Semantic Web "the next stage of the Internet." More »

Ashley Dupre nude pictures make semantic Web slightly less obscure
Larry Flynt is willing to pay Ashley Alexandra Dupré — the call girl who had something to do with what's-his-name from New York — $1 million to pose for Hustler. Imagine how much the Orlando Sentinel's website would have made from publishing Dupré's Girls Gone Wild photos back when Britney Spears hadn't yet made her cameo on CBS and Dupre still dominated the news cycle. With the right timing, it would have been bigger than Lindsay Lohan taking it of for New York magazine. But the Sentinel's loss can be your gain, "semantic Web" startups. The newspaper obviously blew it. The reason? More » -

Web 3.0, the first step towards computer takeover
People, have we not learned anything from moving pictures? Skynet, Omni Consumer Products, Cylons — heck, even the Borg? Do not entrust networks with intelligence. Things end poorly. Cybernetic killing machines aside, the semantic Web, otherwise known as Web 3.0, should still scare the bejeezus out of you. Radar Networks and Spock.com, two startups in the news, show us why we need to unplug Web 2.0 before it upgrades itself and no one can stop it. More »

Web 3.0 is like a group hug
TIM FAULKNER — Dave Winer, web technology pioneer and prognosticator, is sharing his vision of Web 3.0, the buzzword that was cliché before it was even coined. Unfortunately but perhaps unsurprisingly, his prediction, or rather his aspiration, has little to do with the evolution of web applications or modes of expression; instead it amounts to a detente to the self-made feud between professional journalists and the blogosphere.
