The current web consists of HTML pages, documents, images etc. This is the “web for humans”. Web 3.0 present “Web for the machines”, where by we introduce Understanding of data to machines by embedding the RDF or microformat TAGS to an existing HTML.
Take a look at http://rdfa.info for detail information on RDF, and how it is changing the way Internet will evolve.
For now, I would like to discuss the opportunities exist now in Web 3.0 World.
RDF Converter/Interpreters:
There are few programs which can interpret RDF embedded codes from an existing HTML pages. If you can build a good Integrator and a converter which converts existing HTML pages to RDF-Enabled machine readable pages, you are looking at a serious money.
Non-HTML to RDF
Applications like Adobe AIR, Flash, Flex, Microsoft Silverlight are making headways to embed RDF and build machine-readable applications. However, if you build an application/services/Web Services which can take e..g FLAH movie and present its data in RDF format, this will be a major move.
RDF NameSpace
At the moment, we only have a handful of NameSpace that we can used with RDF. If you can produce namespace for RDF, it will be very beneficial.
Above are some of the opportunities that are available within this current frame work of time. Web 3.0 is changing very rapidly and will present more and more hidden gems to those who ACT NOW.
Cheers!
