What is Web 3.0 and 4.0 the upcoming technology

Web History - In the 21st century, the Web is the most significant and effective technology. Its nature, structure, and way of usability are changing continuously.

The Web's evolution has been stratified into different stages that we generally represent in the Web X.0 pattern which is based on what they do and who or what is at the main of their action.

From the beginning till now, the stages are denoted as Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web 3.0, Web 4.0, and so on. Web 1.0: The emergence of the Web - Web 1.0 is called the first stage of the World Wide Web's evolution. It is also called the traditional web practice. People can read and interact with the information posted on servers using a standard web browser through the Internet. That is why it is called the “Information-Centric” stage of the World Wide Web.

The foundation of the Web was set in this stage or phase. The HTTP, HTML, XML, Server side script, etc. were the main development and improvement in Web 1.0.

Web 1.0 sites were using the static pages, server-side files for the database, frames and tables with spacer gif, HTML form via email, etc. as common design elements.

Web 2.0: The interaction with the Web – Web 2.0 is the second phase of the World Wide Web evolution which was about user-generated information or content consumption and sharing. That is why it is called the "User-Centric" phase of the Web evolution.

Web 2.0 allowed and encouraged the people or the users to create, share, and distribute information or content either in text or image in the virtual community. Many new web practices, technologies, and applications developed in this social revolutionary phase with users' participation e. g. - blogs, social networking sites, Wikipedia, communication tools, Software as a service (SaaS), tagging of websites, dynamic content(responsive to user input), RSS, Podcasting, keyword search, etc.

The spamming, trolling, hate content, etc. also originated and increased in the Web 2.0 phase due to the freedom to contribute with serious debate and collaboration.

Many web designing skills and information is available at Showing posts with the label Web Designing.

Web 3.0: The emergence of AI And Big Data –

Web 3.0 is the third stage or phase of the World Wide Web which is also known as the "Semantic Web or Meaningful Web". The purpose of the Semantic Web is to make the Web data machine-readable which was previously only readable by humans. Thus, it allows for more sophisticated and advanced interaction between devices and users intelligently.

We have access to a huge amount of structured data or big data using different software due to Web 3.0 technologies. Web 3.0 is characterized by intelligence and efficiency due to the use of AI technology which generated a new way of data-driven marketing and production of the application. The 3D graphics, Virtual Reality, Blockchain-based cryptocurrency, Secure data ownership, etc. are the characteristics of Web 3.0.

Many new significant developments and advancements are taking place which results in modern and effective Web 3.0 applications, technologies, and platforms. For example - e-Chat, Storj(blockchain-based secure file storing), Sapien(filters correct data), Ethlance(Ethereum blockchain technology), etc.

The Resource Description Framework (RDF) or XML (eXtensible Markup Language), JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data (JSON-LD) techniques are used for describing the machine-readable semantic data. InterStellar Files System (IPFS) is used to create a peer-to-peer, faster, efficient, secure, and transparent file system.

Web 3.0 is also known as the Internet 3.0 and it is now become an integral part of our daily life due to the habitual of the Internet in human life by connecting to the web always, anytime, and anywhere.

Web 4.0: The advancement of human intelligence – Web 4.0 is the next generation of the Web with highly advanced and sophisticated applications and technology.

Web 4.0 is known as the symbiotic web due to the symbiotic interaction between man and machine. Web 4.0 is also called as “read-write-execute” web. Web 4.0 concept is still underway so there is no real and uniform definition for this yet.

Web 4.0 is also known as the "intelligent Web" or "smart Web." The main objective of Web 4.0 is to advance the co-relation between human intelligence and machine sophistically at the highest level, for producing a fully interactive high performance, fast internet or web experience with the top quality information. For example - in a Web 4.0 application, intelligent software agents or AI will process information and communicate with the application system or other software agents or AI on behalf of you to solve your problems. Thus it automates your tasks and decreases your workload.

Web 4.0 applications represent technology about mobility and the voice interaction between user and machine. It makes a comfortable and effective way for accessing the application for tech and non-tech people.

Web 4.0 can assist us to protect the environment and create an eco-friendly environment for human beings by making digitally efficient smart cities.

Web 4.0 will change both business and medical sectors. RFID tags are added to products to enhance customer experiences. Medicine will eventually enable human-machine connection, giving patients the ability to heal using symbiotic systems.

Web 4.0 application can analyze and take better task-oriented decisions and suggest solutions for solving your problem
