The terms of the week
Hello! Are you ready for a journey into the future of the Web and the Internet? Today I’m going to tell you about two terms you may have heard: Web 3.0 and Internet 3.0. You may be wondering if they are the same thing or if there are differences between the two. Don’t worry, I will guide you through this fascinating world and show you the differences between Web 3.0 and Internet 3.0.
Web 3.0
Web 3.0 is the next generation of the World Wide Web-that part of the Internet that we use every day to search for information, share photos and videos, and chat with friends. Web 3.0 is also often called the “Semantic Web” because it uses artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to make the Web more intelligent, understandable and useful for users.
Imagine a Web where machines and computers can understand the meaning of information and web pages, not just their content. For example, if you search for “superhero movies” on Web 3.0, the search engine could figure out exactly what movies you are interested in and show you more relevant and personalized results.
Web 3.0 is mainly about the evolution of the World Wide Web and how we use it to search for and share information.
Internet 3.0
Internet 3.0, on the other hand, is a more general term that refers to the evolution of the entire Internet infrastructure and technologies. This includes not only the World Wide Web, but also other components such as e-mail, cloud services, social networks, and so on. Internet 3.0 involves greater decentralization, security and privacy for users.
One of the most interesting technologies of Internet 3.0 is blockchain, which is the basis of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Blockchain allows for the creation of secure, decentralized networks where information is distributed among many computers instead of being controlled by a central entity such as a government or large corporation.In practice, Internet 3.0 could allow you to have more control over your personal data, protect your privacy, and communicate more securely with friends and family.
Internet 3.0 is about the evolution of the entire Internet infrastructure, including decentralization, security and privacy.
