I was discussing the real value of Web 2.0 apps with one of my programmers the other day, when he said don't worry too much about it, the coming Web 3.0 will change everything.

He gave me some links to follow, and several hours and some heavy reading later, I think I at least had a general understanding of Web 3.0, the dataweb, linked web, semantic web or whatever you want to call it.

The one thing I did get, was that if we all thought content was king before, it is going to be even more important in Web 3.0.

Some of you may have read recently Sir Tim Berners-Lee saying that Google could fall due to the challenges and opportunities the dataweb implies.

Anyway, I've written a rather lengthy post on my blog here, with links to all sorts of people, including Sir Tim, talking about the semantic web and what it means.

What I'd like to ask fellow Gooruze is where you're at with Web 3.0? What do you think of the next paradigm shift?
