In present time, Internet and Web is not the same as it was before ten years ago. Many new technologies are being introduced and the way of using the Internet has changed a lot. These trends have led to a feeling that Web is entering a ‘second phase’ – a new, ‘improved’ Web version 2.0. It is a type of more social and participatory phase. Its theme is mass participation, where participation takes the form of creating, editing or ranking content
Web 2.0 is an interactive and social Web facilitating collaboration between people. This is distinct from the early Web (Web 1.0), which was a static information dump where people read websites but rarely interacted with them. A Web 2.0 website allows its users to interact with other users or to change website content. Media coverage of Web 2.0 concentrates on the common applications/services such as blogs, video sharing, social networking and podcasting. It represents a more socially connected Web in which people can contribute as much as they can consume.
The term Web 2.0 was coined in 2004 and promptly trademarked by O’Reilly Media. It’s not a very specific term; rather, it’s an umbrella that covers many technologies and approaches. It encompasses blogs and wikis, peer-to-peer file sharing and open source, web services, cost per click and multi-platform delivery. This text establishes that Web 2.0 is much more than a set of ‘cool’ and new technologies and services by describing principle features of Web 2.0.
The main technologies which changed the way of use of Internet and that led to the rise of Web 2.0, such as RIA, CSS, XHTML and AJAX . The distinguishing implications of Web 2.0, like Blogs, Wiki, tagging, podcasting and RSS, will be explained in detail.
However, business concerns are increasingly shaping the way in which we are being led to think and potentially act on the Web and this has implications for the control of public and private data. This text also discusses whether the content produced by Web 2.0 is sufficiently or fundamentally different to that of previous Web content and, in particular, do its characteristics make it harder to collect and preserve?
And what will it mean for education, a sector that is already feeling the effects of the demands of Internet-related change? Finally, we look to the future. What are the technologies that will affect the next phase of the Web’s development: what one might call, rather reluctantly, Web 3.0?
But there's still a huge amount of disagreement about just what Web 2.0 means, with some people decrying it as a meaningless marketing buzzword, and others accepting it as the new conventional wisdom.
