In his keynote at Web 2.0 Expo yesterday, Tim O'Reilly (pictured, by Duncan Davidson) described the Internet as THE global plaform for everything connected, that will harness collective intelligence. This "open" plaform will make everybody smarter akin to literacy. Here are O'Reilly's top 3 deep trends to look for in Web 2.0:

- Web 2.0 in the enterprise. It's not just for consumer applications. Now some companies get it and his advice to them is to let customers access to their back-office;

- Cloud computing. THE computer is all the computers and devices linked together through the Internet operating system. Without this Net/Grid/Cloud a device is useless. What matters is not the software on a single device but the software in the cloud, as a service;

- and the Mobile Web and mobile does not equal the phone.

One more thing...Think BIG!

"Don't follow the headlines to see what's hot... Don't be afraid to tackle on big hard problems... And if you win or if you loose make a difference, make a difference".
