The movement involved in Web 2.0 did not only involved the advancement of web technology but also involved the participation by the internet users itself that became the massive content providers of the web, take into consideration the massive contents in social network websites and blogging sites.
There is however another domain in which massive contents is found, peer-to-peer (p2p) networks have flourished as efficient data/content sharing network. Thus, harnessing such network to publish contents that are often done through sites with 'static IP' will enable the contents to expand rapidly.
A concept of a ‘web peer’ is needed to publish and discover contents over the p2p network.
A broker between the centralized web and the decentralized ‘web peer’ network must be built in order to expose the contents in p2p networks. A new protocol is also needed for service discovery of p2p-based web services—from simple web service to full blown web application that can be delivered through p2p.
Centralized access will also aid the rapid growth of contents, like 'web desktop’ solutions will certainly be a tool that will ease the content management for internet user content providers. Web desktop solution that has access to different web services like centralized web services like, internet applications and distributed services like, distributed storage.
Distributed storage builds upon each participant’s internet time to store content over the internet using p2p protocols. As participants spend more time online more and more data are stored in the network.
As the era of Cloud computing is approaching fast, cloud computers will allow internet users to stay online at greater amount of time as the power consumption of such devices are very low—this will allow such distributed system to have stronger grounds.
Web 3.0 is also about availability of internet, a movement similar to ‘Fon’ and ‘Meraki’ that enables the rapid proliferation of internet through managed WiFi distribution across the globe.
As web 3.0 is not just about a single device, an initiative that will unify the dynamic contents found in small businesses such as stores is thus needed to realize the web to merge with the mobile edge. Thus, a movement is needed that deals with unifying such published contents which Bluetooth is the main catalyst for such convergence.
As WiFi has been the mobile wave that opens the portal to the web, Bluetooth and Zigbee on the other hand bridges the gap between the internet and the real world with the availability of Bluetooth and Zigbee-based sensor devices, like for temperature, pollution , community level health status and others. Many other Bluetooth-enabled devices in the following years will be able to bridge real-time community generated data through commercial implementations of such technology. Thus with the convergence of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, real-time information of the community and environment will be available to the web, which will open better opportunies for the masses using the web.
