I was more so referring to her equation for web 3.0:

(4C + P + VS)

3C = Content, Commerce, Community
4th C = Context
P = Personalization
VS = Vertical Search

Frankly, not very representative of Web 3.0 I would say. @ Greg – True, pure marketing :)

If the first wave was all about companies getting out there, and web2 about websites powered by user content, I think the next step is to let users aggregate these services onto their own personal hub. Blogs are certainly part of it, but they are also part of web2. It doesn't seem like enough of a shift to qualify for a major revision number, though, but combined with machine-learning, it might happen.

The only thing certain at this point is that it isn't actually anything, so anyone using the term is likely just a marketing shill.

At the moment it's just a bunch of business people and consultants getting together to try and define something. They are never right about this stuff. The next phase of the web will be created and defined by the developers who innovate and create something new. It has always worked that way, and will continue to - it's unlikely anyone will be able to predict what it will be until it happens. Here's a prediction - it won't be called web 3.0, and if it is - I'm changing careers. ;) Nobody knows yet.
