1.0 was mostly static web pages with content changes largely driven by manual page updates to static web resources. This was the era where most sites were powered by an httpd host.
2.0 was when databases and ajax (JavaScript async) started to take over as a web content delivery form. Often content delivery moved from semantic page navigation flows to "single page applications" where the client state was often held client side and pushed to the server when asking for new content.
3.0 is the marketing term for crypto based projects that are trying to sell "a brand new web" where there are no longer centralized services providing content, and somewhere it all gets glued together with crypto forgetting that most of the modern web users are running on cell phones with limited cpu and more importantly battery constraints. It's also part of a proud group of technologies that garnered a catchy marketing term to describe the movement before the practical implementations emerged (much unlike web 1.0, 2.0 before it).
- glenstein 3y agoI fully agree that 3.0 is the marketing term for decentralized cryptobro stuff, but isn't it also a term that tentatively belonged to a more generic idea of a regular web that iterates beyond web 2.0?
- msla 3y agoNo. Web 3.0 is only defined in terms of marketing buzz tied to crypto. It has zero use outside of that.
- pests 3y agoNot true. The semantic web people were using it to describe their ambitions.
- glenstein 3y agoRight, that's what I mean. Of course it won't stop people, people who are evidently even less acquainted with the subject of than me before I asked my question, from giving confidently incorrect responses. I don't believe that their version of the term web 3.0 really took off the way that the web 2.0 buzzword did, but I vaguely understand the term having a meaning independent of the meaning given to it by crypto enthusiasts.
- pests 3y agoOh it definitely had a meaning before the crypto people started using it. When I think of Web3 I think of "never really got clearly defined, those semantic web guys got close" and then being used for crypto.
