Long live the Internet!

The Web is dead. In class we were asked that if we were the web, and since the web is dead does that mean that we are dead. I think that in this article it implies that the web may be dead but the Internet and the apps are what we have become. It like when a caterpillar goes into a cocoon and becomes a butterfly. The caterpillar is gone only for it to become a butterfly. The point of this is that we as a people have become something else from the web. As we were once the web, and that gave way for the web 2.0 we have simply become apps (weird). The article talks about how we have become more of an easy, fast, app society. But isn't that suspected. As humans we also simplify things to improve them. We made things from a a keyboard thing to a now "touch" thing. We can touch stuff instead of applying pressure on some keys on a keyboard. We made typing faster and cooler looking.

What I think the article is more about though, is that the web (people sharing and searching over a space) is gone because people kinda have a general idea of what we want. We want things that are popular and don't bother to search for them. I remember when Myspace was all the rage when I was in my early High School years. Well, after Facebook came we pretty much made fun of any one who stilled used Myspace. We were like "Facebook is cool and Myspace is dumb and stupid, why the hell are you using it?!!" People  got lazy and instead of searching for things we just click (or touch) an app and got what we want. I think that this might have arise,the death of the Web, from the fact that you have to pay for internet. Its not free. You can stroll into Starbucks and get Wi-Fi but thats probably figured into the price of the coffee. Internet and the Web for that matter cost money. That why people have a general idea of what they want, they used the web until they got what benefited them and companies turned those things into apps. The Web is dead but it will arise in a new form along with apps. I don't have an idea of what Web 3.0 is going to be, but does anyone know what the thing that going to kill the internet is going to be? We just have to wait for the future and speculate until they arrive.
