Hehe... no, I didn't think you were.

It's just funny that my post was sparked off by being annoyed at the whole "web x.x" thing in the first place, and then a lot of people thought I was advocating it!

Hey Rob. Yeah, wasn't knocking your post, per se, though I guess seeing 'web 4.0' written down is part of what sparked it.

I can be a bit of a cynic at times, but I still enjoy watching the web grow & evolve. I'd just rather wait till it evolves to pin a name on the next evolution.

I quite agree. The point of the post was really a call to action around the idea that would could be doing so much more with the web, and using technology as a driver is really isn't helping!

The whole "Web 4.0" thing was a bit unnecessary really. It just seemed like a decent hook to hang the idea on, but in retrospect I should have made the satire more obvious. Oh well. Luckily, my blog doesn't exactly have a massive readership!
