Since the information-communications systems lay on three interactive portions of infrastructure (network, information bases, devices/interfaces), the current Internet domination of Web 2.x will be finished very soon. The Internet as we are using today has to be changed. In particular, the next generation of Internet has to be more user friendly, information oriented and computerless interfaced. It should add features that will help users utilize it in the same way they utilize other methods of communication and transport and have the same or superior level of flexibility. What will be with Internet if it would not answer on new demand for greater and more flexible/mobile communication? Some projections are based on presumptions that Internet will not survive. In contrary, there are also presumptions that Internet could survive with Web 2.x and Social Networks development and with IPv6 as well. Does it means real base and solution for helping Internet to stay alive or it is only placebo for today's Internet users. In order to reshape current Internet status, some Web 2.x and Social Networks deployments are described in this paper as well as the assumptions on the structure of survival kit for Internet to stay alive in the future.
