8. Web 2.0 : Dynamic Web Pages
World Wide Web was invented , most web pages were static. Static in the sense
that the page is “as is” and cannot be manipulated by the user ( flat page or
stationary) Web 1.0 is an example of static web.
Web 2.0 is a term coined by Darcy DiNucci on January 1999. In her article titled,
“ Fragmented Future.
Web 2.o is the evolution of Web 1.0 by adding dynamic web pages- the user is
able to see a website differently than other.
EXAMPLE: Social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted
services and web applications.
Web 2.0 allows users to interact with the page ( comment and create a user
account)
Web 2.0 also allows users to use web browsers instead of just using their
operating system.
Most website we visit today are Web 2.0

Website URL Static Dynamic Reason

10. The following 7 are the key features
of web 2.0
1. Folksonomy : Free Classification of Information
2. Rich User Experience
3. User as a Contributor
4. Long Tail
5. User Participation
6. Basic Trust
7. Dispersion

11. Folksonomy
Traditional Web like Yahoo Directory and DMOZ uses a pre-defined classification of
Information like category & sub category. Allows users to categorize and classify/
arrange information using freely chosen keywords. This is also referred to as
hashtag (#)
For example , the photo sharing site Flickr and Social Bookmarking of del.icio.us.
Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

12. Rich User Experience
Traditional web are built with HTML
and CSS、CGI and had been offered as
a static page . On the other hand Web
2.0 uses Ajax (Asynchronous
JavaScript + XML), HTML5 (for
interactive video and audio)
presenting dynamic , rich user
experience to users. These
technologies substitute old fashioned
SWF Flash media and provide
webmasters with ability to insert
dynamic video right into HTML code.
For example, Google Provided Google
Maps and Google Suggest.

13. User As Contributor
In tradition web, the information is
often provided by the site owner
and the user is always the receiver.
The information model was One
Way . On the other hand Web 2.0
user also contributes to the content
by means of Evaluation, Review &
Commenting.
example :Amazon.com – customer
review section & Google’s Page
Rank mechanism

14. Long Tail
The traditional web was like a
retail business the product is
sold directly to user and the
revenue generated. But in
web 2.0 the niche product is
not sold directly but offered
as a service on demand basis
and income is generated as
monthly fee and pay per
consumption.
example is sales force CRM
services and Google Apps

15. User Participation
In traditional web the
contents are solely
provider by the web site
owner /company, but in

Tube.

16. Basic Trust
In traditional web the contents
are protected under Intellectual
Property Rights but on the other
hand, in web 2.0 the contents are
made available to share, reuse,
redistribute and edit.
examples : Wikipedia & Creative
Common

17. Dispersion/ Mass participation
In traditional web, the
contents were delivered as
direct site to home. But in
web 2.0, the content
delivery uses multiple
channel include file sharing
& permalinks.
Examples: Bit Torrent and
Mashup

18. Web 3.0 & the Semantic Web

linked data. Semantic Web technologies enable people
to create data stores on the Web, build vocabularies,
and write rules for handling data.
