What is an associate expert?

I've decided to be an expert in Web 4.0.  When can I start using this term?  What are good buzzwords to associate with it?

  • Now that people say Web 3.0, I figure I need to get the jump on them and be an expert in Web 4.0.  I think Web 4.0 should be the "Implicit Web."  Can you help me develop a meaning for this concept?  Or do you have a better idea? I have the following explanation/slogan:  "Web 1.0 was info pages.  HTML ruled Web 1.0.  Web 2.0 was the social web.  It was Myspace and Facebook.  AJAX defined Web 2.0.  Web 3.0 was the mobile web on the go.  It was when you found a restaurant on your yelp app on the go and then checked in when you got there.  The app was the base of Web 3.0.  Web 4.0 is when you drive to forest preserve and masturbate in your car.  The judgmental stares of forest animals are the technology of Web 4.0.  It is the IMPLICIT WEB." Do you find that explanation compelling?  Does it make you want to pay me six figures a year to make Power-points for your company? I thank you in advance for your input!

  • Answer:

    I thought Web 3.0 was the semantic web and we have not achieved that yet? So, if Web 3.0 is mobile web, then Web 4.0 might be semantic web and therefore you really need to be preaching Web 5.0 to be truly ahead of the game.

I think that due to the constantly evolving state of technology and internet, Web 4.0 will be an unpredictable creature that will encompass the ideas of unification of devices under strict standards (not existing today) and taking advantage of unified access to the devices. For example, Windows 8 and iOS will start to have many common UI elements and user-based UX that will fall in line and thus allow users to jump from one platform adhering to common standards to another. That was what internet was for, a unifiication platforms under the banner of highly researched UI interactions and user-friendly (user KNOWN UX). All of these terms fall under the new term Unified User Experience (UUX) which requires a developer to think (and developer!) on all platforms together. Again, this is title Cross Platform Unification (ie. CPU). Terms: * Unification of Devices (UOD) * User Based UX (UBX) * Unification of Platforms (UOP) * User Known UX (UKUX) * Researched UI Interaction (RUII) * UUX * CPU To become a qualified CEO that knows about this futuristic technology (which will hopefully use a Common Interface Interface (CII) ), you will have to purchase many of the different tablets, phones, and computers and figure out how to make each feel like the same thing. My own knowledge of UBX brings me to a conclusion that the best CII for CPU will be creating a RUII with the old SAAS platform which will access the rest of the apps on all devices thus creating an artificial UOP

That's a great idea, except if someone comes out and starts using "Web 5.0".

Hmm. Talk about "big data", but be careful not to qualify the term any further, as while it's a hand-waving media buzzword, it can actually refer to real work in some contexts. "Semantic web" is always a good one for change-the-human-condition hype. "Smart cities" seems promising too, though I'm not 100% sure if there's actually something to that one, so use with caution. If you really want to push the value boat out to the commentator fishfarm, sentient machines, uploaded consciousnesses, thinking computers and pretty much anything involving "quantum technology" are all excellent rah-rah futurist nonsense topics. Save "the singularity" for the money shot, and "blue-pill-red-pill dichotomy" for the afterparty. And of course, predict market sizes - "the market for smartrocks will be worth $3-174bn by 2015-2037", and so on.

Perhaps web 4.0 is augmented reality and ubiquitous sensors (I.e the Internet of things).

I am sorry but you are too late. Two years ago I was at a conference where a speaker talked about web 5.0. He was serious about it. Showed some old YouTube clips and other content with all different backgrounds. I think web 5.0 were the internet lasered into your eyes. Or something like that. I left the conference before he could talk any further.

I think your best strategy is to move beyond Web X.0. Think 'post-web', i.e MATRIX 1.0.  Buzzwords along the line of SPN (spoon), BMS (big mechanical spider) and most importantly BPRP (blue pill-red pill).

No and no.
