## What Jamie wrote

I've been on the Web since the beginning and clearly remember when we first started hearing about Web 2.0 and all the AJAX glory it provided. I tend to define Web 1 as a read-only web, and Web 2 as a read-write web with the primary example of that capability being social. In my head Web 3 adds Identity, Payment, Assets to the stack of web capabilities to build in. It is interesting to see organizations framing these thoughts. Cloudflare is even creating [apps to help you get started on Web3](https://blog.cloudflare.com/get-started-web3/).
