Web 3.0

For week 20 my homework was to read up on what comes after Web 2.0. It's a huge, huge field. As part of my research was searching for the term 'the semantic web', I found the following reference in the The Hutchinson Dictionary of Scientific Biography. In 1999, Berners-Lee became the first 3Com Founders professor at MIT, with a joint appointment in the school of engineering and the computer science and artificial intelligence laboratory (CSAIL). In 2004 he was appointed to a chair in computer science at the University of Southampton, UK, where he pursues the development of the ‘semantic web’, a hypertext Web that ‘understands’ the content of documents with the help of specific annotation.
