Web 2.0, Web 3.0, and User Participation in The Web

Web 1.0 allowed users to search and read information online but provided little interaction. Web 2.0 enabled user participation and content generation through features like commenting and social media. Web 3.0 aims to go beyond this by allowing machines to directly understand data through techniques like semantic markup and web services, enabling software applications to communicate and execute tasks for users.

Web 2.0, Web 3.

0, and user
participation in the web
Web
• ->referred formally as
World Wide Web (www) is
collection of information
which is accessed via
the Internet.
• ->is service on top of that
infrastructure.
• Tim Berners-Lee
• ->director of World Wide
Web Consortium and the
inventor of the World
Wide Web (in 1989).
• Web 1.0
• ->The first iteration of the
web represents the web 1.0,
which, according to Berners-
Lee, is the “read-only web.”
• In other words, the early
web allowed us to search
for information and read it.
• There was very little in the
way of user interaction or
content generation.
• Example of Web 1.0
• Shopping Cart
Application
• catalog or a brochure
->The overall goal is to
present products to
potential customers
Web 2.0
• ->the “read-write” web ( Berners-Lee)
• ->It’s the ability to contribute content and interact
with other web users.
Example of WEB 2.0
• a welcome response to
web users, who want to
participate in the
information.
WEB 3.0
• This leads us web 3.0 (extending
the vague nomenclature). By
extrapolating Tim Berners-Lee’s
explanations, web 3.0 is “read-
write-execute.”
• This is difficult to envision in its
abstract form.
• To illustrate, consider semantic
markup and web services.
• Semantic markup
• ->refers to the communication gap between humans and
computerized applications.
• ->One of the biggest challenges of presenting information
on the web is that applications cannot provide context to
data, and, therefore, can’t understand what is relevant.
• ->Through the use of some sort of semantic markup (or
data interchange formats), data could be put in a form not
only accessible to humans via natural language, but able to
be understood and interpreted by software applications as
well.
• Example of Semantic markup
While it is still
evolving, this
notion —
formatting data to
be understood by
software agents
— leads to the
“execute” portion
of the web 3.0
definition.
• web service
• ->is a software that supports computer-to-computer
interaction over the internet.
• ->a software service used to communicate between
two devices on a network. More specifically, a Web
service is a software application with a standardized
way of providing interoperability between disparate
applications.
• The popular photography-sharing website Flickr
provides a web service whereby developers can
programmatically interface to search for images.
• There are thousands of web services. Combining
semantic markup and web services can produce a
web 3.0 experience — applications that can speak
to each other directly and interpret information for
humans.
