Web 2.0
Features of Web 2.0
Folksonomy - It allows users to categorize and classify/ar-
range information using freely chosen keywords (e.g.,
tagging). Popular social networking sites such as Twitter, In-
stagram, Facebook,
etc. use tags that start with the pound sign (#). This is also
referred to as hashtag.
Features of Web 2.0
 Rich User Experience - Content is dynamic and is respon-
sive 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.
Features of Web 2.0
User Participation - The owner of the website is not the only one
who is able to put content. Others are able to place a content of their
own by
means of comment, reviews, and evaluation. Some websites allow
readers to comment on an article, participate in a poll, or review a
specific product (e.g., Amazon.com, online stores).
Features of Web 2.0
 Software as a Service - Users will sub-
scribe to a software only when needed rather
than purchasing them. This is a cheaper op-
tion if you do not always need to use a soft-
ware. For instance, Google Docs is a free
web-based application that allows the
user to create and edit word processing and
spreadsheet documents online.
Features of Web 2.0
Mass Participation - It is a diverse information sharing
through universal web access. Since most users can use the
Internet, Web 2.0’s content is based on people from various
cultures.
Web 3.0
 Also called as Semantic Web
 Semantics – ability of Web technologies to understand and
interpret human-generated content
 The aim of Web 3.0 is to have machines understand the
user’s preferences to be able to deliver web content specifi-
cally
targeting the user.
 The Internet is able to predict the best possible answers to
your question by “learning from your previous choices

Example:
Apple’s Siri
What I Can Do
Differentiate Web 1.0, Web 2.0, and Web 3.0 in your own
words.
WEB 1.0 WEB 2.0 WEB 3.0
