O’Reilly Predicts the Future of Web 2.0

This hilarious piece by Nat Torkington over at O’Reilly Radar predicts the Future of Web 2.0 and the rise of Web 3.0.

2008: Firefox 3.14159 ships (those geeks at Mozilla just won’t be able to help themselves, and the resulting flamewar and developer resignations over whether to call it “PiFox” or not will lead to it being dubbed “PyreFox”). This version adds offline support to Ajax web applications. People will want to call the result “Web 3.0″ but that term was claimed in advance by the Semantic Web so the blogosphere will quickly decide to call this Web 2.86 but the period will be quickly quickly lost (to the condemnation of purists) and the media will refer to “Web 286“.
