The Road to Web 3.0 for Librarians

Web 3.0 (Presentation)

Recently, I presented to a SLAIS class, LIBR 534: Health and Information Services. I gave a talk about Web 3.0, and more specifically, the continuum from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0. I strongly believe that the road to Web 3.0 is linear, and that in between is the Semantic Web. While many interchangeably use Web 3.0 and Semantic Web, I differentiate the two and contend that only through harnessing Web 2.0's social and collective collaboration and applying it using Semantic Web's intelligent technologies can we realize the potential of Web 3.0.

Hi,

just a general comment for your audience. A good resource for biomedical reference librarians would be search engine Vadlo (vadlo.com), especially for the biomedical powerpoints.
