Jargon Help
So, for those of you who've heard these terms and don't know what they mean, be happy. No one *really* knows what these terms mean. Anyone who claims to is lying because they aren't well-defined terms.
After too many interactions with them, I thought I'd give my favorite examples:
The best of web 2.0:
Is it Christmas? (There's an RSS feed).
The best of web 1.0:
Just Fucking Google it.
And the best of Web 3.0?
Yeah. When I figure out what it represents I'll add a sarcastic example of this one too.
Also, I'm aware that I'm making fun of the valley but I'm also aware that I live in the middle of this ecosystem and it supports me, pays my bills, brings me joy, and more-or-less defines my professional existence. Let me just admit that I'm now home from a weeknight "party" where I ate and drank for free while taking a tour of a data center and schmoozing, and I even (*gasp of embarassment*) handed out a few cards.
I live here. This is my life.
But really? It is a bit silly when we have to start assigning numbers? Non?
