INTRODUCTION
Internet is one of the words most recently named by those
approaching technology or computer science. Internet brings
a large set of denotations and connotations, according to
user groups, and services changing and evolving. With over
200 million users worldwide, the Internet has become the
most widespread means of communication in the history of
mankind.
Is a source of information and knowledge sharing
worldwide. It is also the communication channel that allows
for cooperation and collaboration between many
communities and interest groups on specific topics,
distributed throughout the world.
You can find all sorts of software for a wide variety of
computers and operating systems, please consult the
catalogs of libraries in the world, access databases with the
most diverse and transfer copies of the documents found,
you can view Copying Images and photographs of any kind or
reproductions of paintings, can be things like real-time chat
two people separated by thousands of miles away, can
communicate through Internet by typing on the computer.
How will interconnection network "Internet is changing
traditional patterns of doing things?, Is one of the questions
this research seeks to address where they cover the
following topics:
How Internet is changing how we communicate (messaging)
in electronic form, leaving behind the use of means such as
fax and phone.
The form of advertising as an electronic competition.
The great changes that arise in business or businesses with
the advent of Internet, since they are all looking to be more
profitable and competitive almenor cost.
Education with new patterns of teaching (classrooms,
libraries and bookstores) with opportunities for further
studies.
The wide variety of services to which you can apply this tool.

1. Definition of Internet
Internet is a group of networks of communication that use
the protocol TCP/IP, the protocol TCP/IP warrants that
the varieties of physical networks work as a single logical
network.
The origin of the Internet
goes back at least to 1969,
when the first connection of
computers known as
ARPANET was established
between 3 Universities in
California and 1 in Utah,
United States.
Internet has mostly impact
in the work; leisure and the
way of get the information
around the world.
Thanks to the Internet, thousands of people can access to
the information immediately, download music, films,
games, etc.
Internet is the most important tool. Nowadays, we can
surf on internet to find mew friends, information, send e-
mails, sharing files, etc.
Comparing the traditional encyclopedias and libraries with
Internet, it is a revolution.
There are other services on internet such as e-mail, FTP,
chats, VoIP, games online, etc.
The most successful service on Internet is “The WWW”.
The people often confuse the WWW with Internet, but
they aren´t the same, The WWW uses Internet like a way
of transmission of data.

2. What does”WWW” mean?


www = “World Wide Web", “the network" or simply "The
Web", as is commonly known, is basically a media text,
graphics and other multimedia objects over the Internet,
that is, the web is a hypertext system that uses Internet
as its transport mechanism or from another point of view,
a graphical way to browse the Internet.

Founded in 1989 in a Swiss research institute, the web


based search engine and hypertext transport protocol
(hypertext transport protocol (http)). Most Web
documents are created using HTML (hypertext markup
language).
It is important to know that www is not synonymous with
the Internet; the Web is a subset of the Internet that
consists of pages that can be accessed using a
browser. Internet is the network of networks where the
information resides. Both e-mail, and FTP, games and
more are part of the Internet, but not the World Wide
Web.

To find hypertext use


programs called Web
browsers that retrieve pieces
of information (called
"documents" or "sites") web
server and displayed on the
computer screen of the
person you are looking for
graphic information, video and textual even audio.

Then you can follow links and hyperlinks on each page to


other documents or return information to the server to
interact with it. The act of following a link after another
is sometimes called surfing the Web.

The web has become a very popular medium to publish


information on the Internet, and the development of
secure transfer protocol (secured server protocol (https)),
the web is now a means of electronic commerce where
consumers can choose their products online and make
purchases using the bank card information securely.
3. WWW PREFIX
Many domain names used for the World Wide Web begin
with www because of the long-standing practice of naming
Internet hosts (servers) according to the services they
provide. The hostname for a web server is often www, in
the same way that it may be ftp for an FTP server,
andnews or nntp for a USENET news server. These host
names appear as Domain Name
System (DNS) subdomain names, as in www.example.com.
The use of 'www' as a subdomain name is not required by
any technical or policy standard; indeed, the first ever
web server was called nxoc01.cern.ch, and many web
sites exist without it. Many established websites still use
'www', or they invent other subdomain names such as
'www2', 'secure', etc. Many such web servers are set up
such that both the domain root (e.g., example.com) and
the www subdomain (e.g., www.example.com) refer to
the same site; others require one form or the other, or
they may map to different web sites.
The use of a subdomain name is useful for load
balancing incoming web traffic by creating a CNAME
record that points to a cluster of web servers. Since,
currently, only a subdomain can be cname'ed the same
result cannot be achieved by using the bare domain root.
When a user submits an incomplete website address to a
web browser in its address bar input field, some web
browsers automatically try adding the prefix "www" to the
beginning of it and possibly ".com", ".org" and ".net" at the
end, depending on what might be missing. For example,
entering 'microsoft' may be transformed
to http://www.microsoft.com/ and 'openoffice'
to http://www.openoffice.org. This feature started
appearing in early versions of Mozilla Firefox, when it still
had the working title 'Firebird' in early 2003. It is reported
that Microsoft was granted a US patent for the same idea
in 2008, but only for mobile devices.
The scheme specifier (http:// or https://) in URIs refers
to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol and to HTTP
Secure respectively and so defines the communication
protocol to be used for the request and response. The
HTTP protocol is fundamental to the operation of the
World Wide Web, and the encryption involved in HTTPS
adds an essential layer if confidential information such as
passwords or banking information are to be exchanged
over the public Internet. Web browsers usually prepend
the scheme to URLs too, if omitted.

4. EVOLUTION OF THE WWW


4.1. WEB 1.0
The Web 1.0 (1991 - 2003) is the way more basic,
where the web navigators are only text, and they are
very fast. Later HTML code appear, it made the web
pages more pleasant to the eyes, in the same way
the first visual navigators such as Internet Explorer,
Netscape, etc.
The Web 1.0 is only reading, the user can’t interact
with the content of the page, it is limited to the
Webmaster.
Some typical design elements of a Web 1.0 site
include:
 Static pages instead of dynamic user-generated
content
 he use of tables to position and align elements on
a page.
 HTML forms sent via email. A user would fill in a
form, and upon clicking submit their email
client would attempt to send an email containing
the form's details

4.2. WEB 2.0


The term Web 2.0 (2004 - Now) is commonly
associated with a social phenomenon; it is based in
the interaction of different applications in the web
to share information, the interoperability, the design
concentrate on the user and t he collaboration in the
World Wide Web.
A web site 2.0
allows to the users
to interact with
other users or to
change the
contents of the
web site.

A Web 2.0 site


gives its users the free choice to interact or
collaborate with each other in a social
media dialogue as creators (prosumer) of user-
generated content in a virtual community, in
contrast to websites where users (consumer) are
limited to the passive viewing of content that was
created for them

Web 2.0 websites allow users to do more than just


retrieve information. By increasing what was already
possible in "Web 1.0", they provide the user with
more user-interface, software and storage facilities,
all through their browser. This has been
called "Network as platform"computing. Users can
provide the data that is on a Web 2.0 site and
exercise some control over that data. These sites
may have an "Architecture of participation" that
encourages users to add value to the application as
they use it.
The client-side/web
browser technologies
typically used in
Web 2.0
development are
Asynchronous
JavaScript and XML
(Ajax), Adobe
Flashand the Adobe
Flex framework,
and JavaScript/Ajax
frameworks such
as Yahoo! UI
Library, Dojo
Toolkit, MooTools, and jQuery. Ajax programming
uses JavaScript to upload and download new data
from the web server without undergoing a full page
reload.
To allow users to continue to interact with the page,
communications such as data requests going to the
server are separated from data coming back to the
page (asynchronously). Otherwise, the user would
have to routinely wait for the data to come back
before they can do anything else on that page, just
as a user has to wait for a page to complete the
reload. This also increases overall performance of the
site, as the sending of requests can complete quicker
independent of blocking and queueing required to
send data back to the client.

Examples of Web 2.0 are the web community, the


web services, the web applications, the wikis, and
blogs.

A WIKI: is a website that allows the easy creation and


editing of any number of interlinked web pages via
a web browser using a simplified markup language or
a WYSIWYG text editor.
Wikis are typically powered by wiki software and are
often used to create collaborative wiki websites, to
power community websites, for personal note taking,
in corporate intranets, and in knowledge
managementsystems.
Wikis may exist to serve a specific purpose, and in
such cases, users use their editorial rights to remove
material that is considered "off topic." Such is the
case of the collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki - cite_note-Britannica-1#cite_note-Britannica-1  In
contrast, open purpose wikis accept content without
firm rules as to how the content should be organized.
4.3. WEB 3.0
Web 3.0 is a neologism
used to describe the
evolution of the use
and interaction in the
network through different paths. This includes the
transformation of the network in a database, a move
towards making content accessible by multiple non-
browser applications, the thrust of artificial
intelligence technologies, Semantic Web, Geospatial
Web, or Web 3D
The Web 3.0 technologies such as intelligent
software, which uses semantic data, have been
implemented and used in small-scale companies to
achieve more efficient data handling. In recent
years, however, more focus has been directed to
transfer these technologies semantic intelligence to
the general public.

5. CONCLUSIONS
 In Web 1.0 the user had access to information only as a
receiver, did not have the opportunity to participate
in the content, the pages were static, generally only
of text and few images, and HTML format was used.
 Another possible path for the Web 3.0 is the direction
in 3D vision. This would involve transforming the Web
into a series of 3D spaces, taking further the concept
proposed by Second Life. This could open new ways
to connect and collaborate, using three-dimensional
spaces.
 The number of users increases continuously. In 2006,
the number of Internet users estimated at 1,100
million. By 2016 it is estimated that the number will
rise to 2,000 million.
