Features of Web 2.0
1. Folksonomy – allows users to categorize and classify/arrange information using freely chosen
keywords
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
4. Long Tail – services that are offered on demand rather than on a one-time purchase. In certain cases,
time-based pricing is better than file size-based pricing or vice versa
5. Software as a Service – users will subscribed a software only when needed rather than purchasing
them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a software
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

Web 3.0 and the semantic
web
The semantic web is a movement led by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The
W3C standard encourages web developers to include semantic content in their web
pages. The term was coined by the inventor of the World Wide Web, Tim Berners-Lee.
Lee also noted that the semantic web is a component of Web 3.0.
According to the W3C, “The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows
data to be shared and reused across application and enterprise, and community
boundaries.”
The aim of Web 3.0 is to have machines (or servers) understand the user’s preferences to
be able to deliver web content specifically targeting the user.
The Internet is able to predict the best possible answers to your questions by “learning”

Web 3.0 and the semantic
web
Web 3.0 is yet to be fully realized because of several problems:
Compatibility. HTML files and current web browsers could not support web 3.0
Security. The user’s security is also in question since the machine is saving his or her
preferences
Vastness. The World Wide Web already contains billions of web pages
Vagueness. Certain words are imprecise. The words “old” and “small” would depend on
the user
Logic. Since machines use logic, there are certain limitations for a computer to be able
to predict what the user is referring to at a given time
