Lesson 1.2: Empowerment Technologies

The document discusses the differences between the Internet and the Web. The Internet is a global network of connected devices, while the Web consists of information shared on the Internet. Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989, allowing for dynamic pages (Web 2.0) that enable user participation and interaction, unlike the static early Web (Web 1.0). Features of Web 2.0 include tagging, responsive design, user-generated content, subscription services, and participation from a global audience.

Internet and Web

What is the difference between


Internet and Web?
Internet
The internet is a massive combination
of billions of computers and other
connected devices located worldwide
and connected via cables and wireless
signals.
Internet

In short… the Internet is a


hardware connection of
network of networks.
Web

The Web is the Information


on the Internet.
WWW

English scientist Tim Berners-Lee


invented the World Wide Web
in 1989. He wrote the first web
browser computer program in 1990.
Web Pages

When the World Wide Web was invented


most web pages were static.
Static (also known as flat page or
stationary page) in the sense that
the page cannot be manipulated
by the user.
Web 1.0
When the World Wide Web was invented
most web pages were static.
Static (also known as flat page or
stationary page) in the sense that
the page cannot be manipulated
by the user. This referred to as
Web 1.0
Web 2.0
However, the World Wide Web is more
than just a static pages. Pretty soon,
Web 2.0 came.
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.
Web 2.0
Web 2.0 allows users to interact with the
page: instead of just reading a page, the
user maybe able to comment or create a
user account. It also allows users to use
web browsers instead of just using their
operating system.
Examples of Web 2.0

Examples of Web 2.0 include


social networking sites, blogs, wikis,
video sharing sites, hosted services, and
web applications.
Web Browsers

Web browser or short for a browser is


a software application used to locate,
retrieve and display content on the World
Wide Web, including web pages, images,
video and other files.
Features of Web 2.0
1. Folksonomy – allows user to categorize
and classify/arrange information using
freely chosen keywords (e.g. tagging).
Popular networking sites such as Twitter,
Instagram, Facebook use tags that start
with the pound sign (#). This is also
referred to as hashtag.
Features of Web 2.0
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.
Features of Web 2.0
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 and online stores).
Features of Web 2.0
4. Long Tail– services that are offered on
demand rather than on a one-time purchase. In
certain cases, time base pricing is better than file
size-based pricing or vise 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 need.
Features of Web 2.0
5. Software as a Service– Users will be subscribed
to a software only when needed rather than
purchasing them. This is cheaper option if you do
not always need to use the software. Software as a
service allows you to “rent” a software for a
minimal fee.
Features of Web 2.0
6. Mass Participation– 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.
