Book: The Whuffie Factor | ::HorsePigCow:: marketing uncommon

Sat, 04 Oct 2008 12:53:23 -0000

The Whuffie Factor
is a breakthrough book, providing the
strategic map and specific tactics for success in the lucrative, but strange and
elusive world of online communities. As Tara Hunt has found, online success
comes from building a community and being part of it – not by pushing a product
or service. If you want to learn the secret sauce behind Facebook, Twitter, or
YouTube, you have to use them until you love them.

Welcome to Web 3.0

Sat, 04 Oct 2008 12:22:20 -0000

The Web 1.0 concept was simple: web pages linking to web pages. Then came Web 2.0 - a powerful movement from web pages to web applications. Web 2.0 applications have evolved into often slick viewports into proprietary or personal collections of information. This means they still primarily house data in silos inaccessible to and disconnected from the larger world, and most importantly, from each other.

But as we approach 2009, the clear outlines of the new web are forming. Some call this next generation the Semantic Web, but we think that term is confining, and so, instead, we refer to it as simply Web 3.0.

The new web is moving beyond connecting pages to interconnecting data objects, concepts, and things. Ultimately Web 3.0 is really about creating technology that more accurately mirrors how we see and think about the world around us.
