9. (WWW)World Wide Web
When WWW was invented, most web
pages were static. Static (also
Known as Flat Page or stationary
page) in the same that the page “as
is” and cannot be manipulated by
the user. This referred to as Web
1.0.
11. Example of Web 2.0
Social Networking Sites
Blogs
Wikis
Video Sharing sites
12. Web 2.0
Web 2.0 allows the user to interact
with the page known as DYNAMIC
PAGE; instead of just reading a page,
the user may be able to comment or
create a user account. Dynamic Page
refers to the web pages that are
affected by user input or preference.
13. Key Features of Web 2.0:
Folksonomy- allows user to categorize
and classify/arrage information freely
chosen keywords (e.g. Tagging).
Popular social networking sites such as
Twitter, Instragram, Facebook etc. Use
tags that start with a pound sign (#) or
hashtag.
15. Key Features of Web 2.0:
Rich User Interface- Content is
dynamic and is responsive to user’s
input. An Example would be a website
that shows local content. In the case
of social networking sites, when
logged on, your account is used to
modify what you see in their website.
16. Key Features of Web 2.0:
User Participation- The owner of
website is not the only one who is able
to put content. Others are able to
place a content on their own by means
of comments, reviews and evaluation.
17. Key Features of Web 2.0:
Long Tail- services are offered on demand
rather than on a one-time purchase. This is
synonymous to subscribing to a data plan
that charges you for the amount of time
you spent on internet or a data plan that
charges you for amount of bandwidth you
used.
18. Web 3.0 and the Semantic Web
Semantic Web- is a movement led by
the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C). The semantic web provides a
framework that allows data to be
shared and reuse to deliver web
content specifically targeting the user.
20. Web 3.0 is yet to be fully realized
because of the several problems:
Compatibility- HTML files and current
web browsers could not support Web
3.0.
Security – The user’s security is also a
question since the machine is saving
his or her preferences.
21. Web 3.0 is yet to be fully realized
because of the several problems:
Vastness- The World Wide Web
already contains billions of web pages.
Vagueness- Certain words are
imprecise. The words “old” and
“small” would depend to the user.
22. Web 3.0 is yet to be fully realized
because of the several problems:
Logic- since machines use logic,
there are certain limitations for a
computer to be able to predict
what the user is referring to a
given time.
24. Trends in ICT
Convergence- is the synergy of
technological advancements to work
on a similar goal or task. For example,
besides using your personal computer
to create word documents, you can
now use your smartphone.
