“We are seeing that manifest in Web 2.0 and 3.0 will be a great
extension of that, a true communal medium… the
distinction between professional, semi-professional and consumers
will get blurred, creating a network effect of business and
applications.”
Jerry Yang, Yahoo CEO, Nov 2006

Web 3.0 mashed

Dine In - Social Networks
Web 1.0Hosted and managed
Laurel Papworth
Traditional Online Communities
• Ambience (from look and feel) • Specific Defined Resources • Particular Purpose• Subset of Friends • Clear Roles and Leaders• Modified Behavior• Events & Rituals - Natural & Managed• Self forming subgroups (Gated
Community)
Laurel Papworth
Analogy: Dining In
• Restaurant ambience• Menu - Italian, Chinese or burgers?• Behavior – Kids allowed?• Purpose – business lunch or picnic?
• Every aspect is defined by either the host, or the members or both.

MySpace or LinkedIn for dinner?
Laurel Papworth
Consuming Socially 1.0
• Restaurants define our experience for us- French cuisine with clients @lunch- Hot dogs @ cricket with mates- Pizza with the kids on weekend
• Communities define our experience for us- LinkedIn for clients and boss and jobs- TheFanatics for cricket forums- Club Penguin, NeoPets and MMORPGs
Laurel Papworth
Which social network for business?
Laurel Papworth
“We put a lot more thought into our Social Network
choices than we consciously realise”
Laurel Papworth
Think about Control and Privacy
• Synchronous (real time IM, chat, virtual world) vs asynchronous (blogs, wikis, forums)
• One-to-one (private chat, messaging, email, SMS)
• One-to-many (blog, broadcast, announce)• Many-to-many (forums, virtual worlds)• Few-to-many/few (wiki, facebook, gated)

Take Out - Social Networks
Web 2.0Aggregated
Laurel Papworth
Consuming Socially 2.0
• Take out – we define our experienceGrab the food and goWear what we likeGo home, go to friends, go wherever
• Community – defined by MY experienceRSS readers – limited look and feelWidgets – my choice of informationPurpose defined by meLeaders and Events defined by me

Laurel Papworth
Take Out- RSS
• Feeds – where’s the ambience?• Purpose – member chooses• Leaders – member selects• Events and Rituals – not really
• Take a bite and send it on
Laurel Papworth
Take Out - Widgets
• Bring bits of host site to the consumer• Doesn’t rely on them coming to your site• Distributed marketing campaign – consumer
to consumer• Feed dynamic information directly to them• Or may be just fun – bobble heads• Consumers advertise your site on their page• Consume information remotely in a location
of their choice

Web 3.0
• Closed vertical silos of information become open
• Hosted and Remote is mashedDine In and Take Out is blurred
• Think Pizza Delivery to wherever• “My” page forms and reforms
depending on what the bots deliver me.
Laurel Papworth
What we need
• One ID or one storage place for profiles• One Friends list – mobile phone and online• One subscription service – RSS, widgets…• Ability to mash each resource up – friends
with maps, profile with friends
• This is all available now? But it has to be re-mashed up each time.
Laurel Papworth
Delivering from one hub/spoke to another
Laurel Papworth
Google OpenSocial
• No need to build a new hub (host or container)
• Standard to push out from hub to spoke
• Standards mean no longer hub to spoke but also spoke to spoke.
• Open up vertical silos of business information onto the web 3.0 data bus

future employees.• Tells IT to open employee database onto web

in LinkedIn, 52800 in Facebook ex employees• Connects the profile information together• Delivers job information into the meta-
network• Members subscribe, introduce acquaintances,
do a social job search

from before?• What is a dine-in vs take out
