0: DYNAMIC WEB PAGES
The internet has been a vital tool to our modern lives that is why it is also important to take the best of the internet.
When the World Wide Web was invented,
most web pages were static. Static (also known as flat page of stationary page) in the sense that the page is “as is” and cannot be manipulated by the use. The content is also the same for all the users. This is referred to as the Web 1.0 Web 2.0 is a term coined by Darcy DiNucci on January 1999, In her article title, “Fragmented Future”, she wrote:
The Web we know now, which loads into
a browser window in essentially static screenfuls, is only an embryo of the Web to come. The first glimmerings of Web 2.0 are beginning to appear, and we are just starting to see how that embryo might develop. Web 2.0 is the evolution of Web 1.0 by adding dynamic web pages – the user is able to see a website differently than others. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services, and web applications. Web 2.0 also allows users to use web browsers instead of just using their operating system. Browsers can now be used for their interface, application software (or web application), and even for file storage. Most websites that we visit today are Web 2.0 FEATURES OF WEB 2.0 The key features of Web 2.0 include;
1. Folksonomy
- allows users to categorize and
classify/arrange information using freely chosen keywords (e.g. tagging). Popular networking sites such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. use tags that start with the pound sign (#). This is also referred to as hashtag. 2. Rich User Experience
- 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. 3. 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 comments, 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). 4. Long Tail
- services that are offered on demand
rather than a one-time purchase. In certain cases, time-based pricing is better than file-size pricing or vice- versa. This is synonymous to subscribing to a data plan that charges you for the amount of time you spent in the Internet, or a data plan that charges you for the amount of bandwidth you used. 5. Software as a Service
- users will subscribe to a software only when
needed rather than purchasing them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a software. For instance, Google Docs is a free web- based application that allows the user to create an edit word processing and spreadsheet documents online. When you need a software, like a Word Processor, you can purchase it for a one-time huge amount and install it in your computer and it is yours forever. Software as a service allows you to “rent” a software for a minimal fee. 6. Mass Participation
- diverse information sharing
through universal web access. Since most users can use the internet, Web 2.0 content is based on people from various cultures.
