Web 3.0 will be an intelligent web that is mobile, meaningful, and personalized for each individual user. It will use semantic tags and relationships to provide context and meaning to content. This will allow search results to be more efficient and personalized for each person. Education 3.0 could benefit from these intelligent features by saving students time searching and tailoring information to their specific learning objectives, but there is a risk it may limit the diversity of information available.
