A Whole New Internet

Do you feel the buzz in the air? For a while, I thought it was just me, but more and more I’m seeing people getting very excited about what’s happening online these days.

There are so many really amazing things happening right now that it feels to me very much like it did ten years ago when I was floored by some new site pretty much every time I booted up. “Some” are calling this “Web 2.0” while others are saying we’re on “Web 3.0”. I’ve lost count on what iteration we’re on but (if you can’t tell), I’m really pumped about what is ahead.

“Adaptive Path’s” “Janice Fraser,” wrote a now much-linked-to post called “A Whole New Internet” that nicely summarizes much of what I’ve been thinking.

Are you feeling it? What are you seeing online that’s getting you excited?
