We're only doing Web 4.0 development now. 3.0 was so --- outre.

I did this a few months ago and wrote it down, so the numbers might be a bit off by now:

  Google results for "Web x.0":
  "web 1.0" : 989,000
  "web 2.0" : 81,800,000
  "web 3.0" : 2,070,000
  "web 4.0" : 102,000
  "web 5.0" : 25,700
  "web 6.0" : 41,300
  "web 7.0" : 12,000
  "web 8.0" : 8,190
  "web 9.0" : 2,030
  "web 10.0" : 5,260
  "web 11.0" : 392,   # meaningless results
  "web 12.0" : 1,220, # meaningless results

"web 2.1" : 109,000 "web 2.2" : 28,30 "web 3.1" : 24,800 ....

"Willing to work with CUSTOMERS and the SYSTEMS THEY USE"

YOU are the Appliance. YOU are Web 3.0.

You've got to get on Web Magenta. The number based scheme is so outdated.

We're moving to colors next year, but heard that Magenta had a lot of problems with plaids.

Right now we're looking for developers who have experience in Web Fucia, preferably using Hot Toddy with Lemon Slices.

Everobody skips 4 when naming versions.

No one likes a composite number.

These guys must have some sort of top secret crystal ball.

Anyone bothered to email them asking for lotto numbers?

Eff it. I'm going to 6. Web 6.0!

Oh yeah? My web goes to eleven.
