What's the definition of Web 3.0? Data, LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman said in a Wednesday afternoon keynote conversation.
Hoffman spoke Wednesday night at the Web 2.0 conference here, where he also talked about the value of data. "One of the really important things good Internet companies do is not ambush their users," he said in a conversation with AllThingsD's Liz Gannes.
According to Hoffman, Web 1.0 consisted of files, where users operated under pseudonyms in chat rooms. He defined Web 2.0 as the emergence of Web apps, where a community of users utilized their real name. Finally, there's Web 3.0 - unfortunately, the platform that it uses isn't a mobile one, but one that's predicated upon data, he said
