Web3 Social

Took me on a journey that transformed my perspective about online creativity and how to monetise it. I really enjoyed the multi-faceted, detailed, and comprehensible explanation of the differences between Web2 and Web3, between coin and token, and between platform and protocol. I also relished the brief history of the Internet leading up to the development of bitcoin. Allen Taylor delighted me with facts that I didn't know as a PhD student using the ARPANET in the 1990s and as a crypto enthusiast since 2017. Taylor has written an articulate and well-written guide to help any online creator navigate the next internet revolution.

A must-read for anyone who wants to stay in the know about the progress of social media & Web3 development, a multi-billion dollar industry that affects most people's lives daily. Allen Taylor dug deep into the origins of Web3, down to terminology and historically accurate interpretations making this a priceless book for those who don’t understand what Web3 is, what it is becoming, or how it came to be. His historical knowledge is unmatched and the book is highly researched. Web3 Social will take you from pre-internet to current state of the World Wide Web, knocking off every significant development in web tech and social media for decades to help you better understand the evolving Web and the future implications of its transitions.

I predict that Web3 will be the next lightning bolt to strike in today’s forever changing digital landscape. For creators from all ilks, it will offer untold opportunities to capitalize on one’s creative chops. Be mindful though that this emerging roadmap to meaningful returns is fraught with uncertainty and potential sinkholes. The good news is author and thought-leader Allen Taylor is bulls-eye in his assessment of the way forward. So let his newest book Web3 Social be your guide to infinite returns.

Web3 Social is an eye opening look at why content creators need, and more importantly, how they can use Web3. He explains the history of the Internet and social media as well as the problems associated with its increased centralization over the years. Then he shows how easy it is to solve those issues. He does it all in simple easy-to-understand terms. Web3 Social: How creators Are Changing the World Wide Web (And You Can Too!) is an excellent follow-up to Cryptosocial: How Cryptocurrencies Are Changing Social Media, its predessor. It serves as a great blueprint to follow for Web3 creators.
