The websites we visit every day are written in various programming languages, some more complex than others. Even though machines play a key role in creating and maintaining the web, the computers themselves really can’t make sense of all this information. They can’t read, see relationships or make decisions like people can. Web 2.0 is focused on allowing people to collaborate and share information online. So machines interpret and display the content of websites, and humans spread and interact with it. The problem with Web 2.0 is that computers simply display blocks of data as instructed by their code. The machines cannot understand the meaning of what they are displaying; they only know how to display it. This creates an issue, as it is difficult to fully realize the value of information on the web. Rather than having all data stored in a structured and usable way, we rely on keywords, links and search engines to give us a vague impression of what might be contained on any given website.

 

The next evolution of the Web is the WRIO Internet OS. It is a platform that proposes to help computers “read” and use the web more like humans, a semantic web. The idea is pretty simple: metadata added to web pages can make the existing World Wide Web machine-readable. This isn’t artificial intelligence and it wont make computers self-aware, but it will give machines the tools to find, exchange, and, to a limited extent, interpret information. It’s an extension of, not a replacement for, the World Wide Web.

The Semantic Web improves Web technologies by helping computers to interpret the meanings of words, rather than relying on keywords or numbers. So the Semantic Web is, in a way, a huge engineering solution. But the true impact is greater, and more subtle than that. Where Web 2.0 is focused on people, the Semantic Web is focused on blurring the line between people and machines.

The web requires a human operator, using computer systems to perform the mindless tasks required to find, search and aggregate its information. It’s impossible for a computer to do these tasks without human guidance because browsers are specifically designed to analyse computer languages, interpreting specific commands to present the code to a user. Current search engines will try and interpret the commands and group them into specific meanings. Google’s search engine does this best, using a method called Parsing. It involves huge amounts of processing power in centralized servers and constant tweaking to keep up with the webs ever-changing nature. The Semantic Web is a project that aims to flip that process on its head, by presenting web page data in such a way that it is understood by computers, enabling machines to do the searching, aggregating and combining of the web’s information without a human operator. This means machines will be able to interpret pages outside the box, and deliver only valuable content to the user.

This is why the Semantic Web is such a vital next step. Data is part of the web, and Semantic Web online communication is done by passing data backwards and forwards, instead of whole web pages or documents like in the Web 2.0. Hence, the Semantic Web is also known as a web of data. According to Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.

Semantics + Blockchain = Web 3.0 has changed the way we present information in the web. The Semantic Web uses a Linked Data format to store its data and allows it to be self-described in a more structured way. Thus the computer can easily process and analyse the data on your behalf: The Semantic Web are static pages with Linked Data distributed around the web. Blockchain contains a mesh of metadata of these pages that sets up a new kind of search engine comprehensible to both humans and machines, on a global scale. Computers are not only able to process long strings of characters and index tons of data. They are also able to store, manage and retrieve information based on meaning and logical relationships. So, semantics adds another layer to the web and is able to show related facts instead of just matching words.

What does this mean for you?

Before: Imagine opening your web browser and typing in “How do I install solar panels on my house?”. In Web 2.0 you get a long list of search results, each of which is its own website about solar energy. Some will be about the science behind it, some will be installers selling their services etc. It is up to you to go through them all and gather the information yourself, collect a list and interpret the multiple websites yourself.

After: Now imagine you type in the same query, and instead of a list of thousands of individual websites, you will receive an answer combined from different sources without having to visit every site, which also has an introduction to solar power, what you need to check before installing, it has pictures of various installations and brands/technologies, and on another page it has a list of all the local installers and companies that you can sort according to price, service, or reputation. This is the future of the web. An instant, curated answer that has all the info you need, because your browser understands what you’re trying to find, and understands where that info is and how to get it. So it can present you with exactly what you need.

Welcome to Web 3.0.

Human-Machine Interpreter

webRunes is a team of crypto-punks that work on the Web 3.0 upgrade project https://wr.io that enables a new level of blockchain-powered and secure browsing experience. webRunes have already built the first version of this, allowing easy creation of Web 3.0 pages. webRunes are also working on more measures to help solve the Chinese Room problem, improving on the current semantic field through machine readable automatic data processing, machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI).

Where Will Web 3.0 Get Us

While Web 2.0 was the web of users and social media, Web 3.0 is the web of machines and predictive search systems and services that can process all incoming information instantly and efficiently, share it freely, sort it and distribute it based on the metadata stored in the blockchain setting the criteria and interests specified through the search engine. You will not have to wade through all the noise to find the gold. Because machines will do it for you. Machine-to-machine communication will happen much faster than machine-to-human. So you get results faster, using less data, and get content from many more sources than you would usually see.

Semantics, automatic data processing and blockchain-powered apps are new trends that will replace many of the visionary technology projects of Web 2.0. Using a single distributed source of machine-readable data, we will see Web 3.0 versions of Google, Skype, eBay, PayPal, Facebook, Uber, and apps that add value to the user experience.

Borders between websites and domains that divide today’s web will dissolve, as we will witness the advent of the P2P, distributed and secure web: a network of interrelated people around the globe powered by WRIO Internet OS. You will be able to exchange information without any restrictions always maintaining their privacy at all times.

User-centric web Dashboard and predictive search engines are the next big thing for the internet. Web 3.0 is an evolution to machine-readable formats, secure web with automated processing of a censor-proof and block-proof Global Data Pool. With mechanisms that ensure reliance on information and people, curation and automatic distribution of information according to users’ interests. WRIO Internet OS is based on these principles and will enable a new market of cloud/distributed apps and affordable thin-client terminal devices with a browser-driven OS.
