Am I wrong in thinking that the reason they’re calling it Web3 instead of Web 3.0 for parallelism with Web 2.0 is that hashtagging it on Twitter just doesn’t work with the period in there? (i.e. #Web3.0 doesn’t link properly on Twitter the way it does on my website.) And if I’m right, is this a problem that we can expect the blockchain to fix? #HistoricalLinguistics

@chrisaldrich it’s just a trend – what do ‘they’ think web3 / Web 3.0 is?
#web3dot0 😉
@JohnPhilpin Definitely a trend, and not a good one. I was purposely being provocative and poking the bear with my post. The sarcastic context is reliant on comparing my original post with the Twitter copy.
@chrisaldrich I’m with you … see on MicroBlog and this on People First.
