For the first time ever, the average US online consumer spends as much time online as he or she does watching TV offline. Trending data from 2007 shows that while consumers are continuing to expand their online behaviors, they are more selective about what they’re doing online. Many behaviors are limited to a select group of users. But as consumers are streamlining their behaviors on the “traditional” Net, they are also increasingly expanding their activities to the mobile Internet.

Here are the details of the third-quarter debacle:

:: Classified advertising led the declines, falling 37.9% from the comparable period in 2008 to $1.47 billion.

:: For the first time since 1995, national advertising sales dropped to less than $1 billion. They were $956 million, or 29.8% lower than a year ago.

:: Retail sales slid a bit less than 24% to just under $3.4 billion. They haven’t been this low since the first quarter of 1987, when they were $3.3 billion. Adjusting for inflation, the 1987 performance would be equivalent to $6.3 billion today, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

If Web 2.0 was all about harnessing the collective intelligence of crowds to give information a value … 

We have had the first decade of the web, or Web 1.0,” he says, which was about the development of the basic platform of the internet and the ability to make huge amounts of information widely accessible, “and we’re nearing the end of the second decade – Web 2.0 – which was all about the user interface” and enabling users to connect with one another…Now we’re about to enter the third decade – Web 3.0 – which is about making the web much smarter.

Web 3.0 is best defined as the third-decade of the Web (2010 – 2020), during which time several key technologies will become widely used. Chief among them will be RDF and the technologies of the emerging Semantic Web.

Web 3.0 is an era in which we will upgrade the back-end of the Web, after a decade of focus on the front-end (Web 2.0 has mainly been about AJAX, tagging, and other front-end user-experience innovations.)
