"The Semantic Web is an evolving extension of the World Wide Web in which the semantics of information and services on the web is defined, making it possible for the web to understand and satisfy the requests of people and machines to use the web content."
Created by Tim Berners-Lee, the Semantic Web is about having data as well as documents on the Web so that machines can process, transform, assemble, and even act on the data in useful ways.
When comparing it to Web 3.0 it's slightly confusing as i think they are similar. Web 3.0 is the term that is used to describe the future of the World Wide Web, what it will be like when web 2.0 is further developed basically. We currently use 2.0.
The Semantic web it seem will play the role of transforming the web, increasing Internet connection speeds and the role that further developments in computer graphics may have in the development of the World Wide Web. (As stated above )
I think the Web 3.0 and the semantic don't differ dramatically but rather the role of these two against that of web 2.0.

I guess one way of looking at web 3.0 is a version of the web that has developed slightly further from the version we've got now and that makes optimal use of the advantages of the semantic web. In that case the two do sort of go hand-in-hand.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frank, i was slightly confused. I thught they were simular and both part of the future. I did read something about how 3.0 will have an impact on search engines, as far as how things will now be displayed. It's advancement on our current system
