Bitcoin could also offer relief to debt-stricken countries such as Cyprus. Good old Max Keiser said that: “Cyprus was Bitcoin's 'come to Jesus' moment and it's fitting it happened around the Easter Holiday,” Keiser said.“For millions of people around the world who have been victimized by banksters and their corrupt politician friends, the light bulb went off and they suddenly realized they could save their wealth by parking it in Bitcoin and no government or bankster could stop them.”
After the initial rush of interest in the Internet in the mid-1990s, and the follow-up boom of Web 2.0 and the growth of social networking, Bitcoin is the third and “perhaps the most disruptive wave of all,” Keiser said.
“This is Web 3.0,” he said. “For me it's extremely exciting since I pioneered the idea of virtual currencies back in the mid 1990s and have four US patents in my name covering virtual trading and virtual currencies. Most people I talked to back then about these ideas and the possibility that something like Bitcoin could exist didn't think it was possible. They were wrong.” I agree... lets go with Mobile 3.0.

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

Although I like the idea, do you know what web 2.0 is? It's user generated content, big websites like Youtube, Facebook and twitter that get their valuable content from users, not professional writers. I agree on the fact that the term web 3.0 can be extremely powerful for Bitcoin.
You are correct today, but a few years ago everybody basically though that white background + lights colors + rounded corners = web 2.0. http://web.archive.org/web/20060111060526/http://digg.com/? being commonly cited as an example. haha exactly!!!

Web 3.0 already has a definition. As others have stated, it refers to the "semantic web" where information is store/retreived in more or less raw state, and websites and pretty presentation is irrelevant. Web services, like APIs, DBPedia (Wikipedia in Raw Database Format), Google's login system for other other sites, things like that, are examples of this.
The objective of a semantic web is to allow services to "hook" into other services - think of creating macros that integrate the functionality of several websites in one stroke. A semantic web might allow you to have a digital personal assistant, like Siri, answer complex questions about real-time content without having to scrape content from webpages.
Instead of being served a website with a bunch of fancy formatting, advertisements, javascript, extra images, you would pull a raw article from the service, and plug it into whatever you need it for. In a theoretically fully semantic web, all things are clearly known for what they are, possibly by some ontology-based tagging like OWL.
It's very open, where the "survivors" are the ones who provide the best content, most consistently, with few to no strings attached.
After giving it some thought, though, I suppose Bitcoin could help facilitate this development in some way.

Therefore, it's time to implement the Mesh based internet delivered by Zeppelins, or whatever that crazy idea was. Sounds as crazy as Bitcoin initially did, so it'll probably happen

So is it fair to say that Satoshi Dice, MPEx, and Silk Road are examples of web 3.0? Maybe censorship resistance and no logins have something to do with it, a lot of applications will be able to achieve this by exploiting features of the blockchain. Could implementation of private arbitration be possible as an example of web 3.0 in the future?
