Objective for the day
Has the Internet changed since its inception?Introducing Web 2.0
Web 1.0Slow connectivityPrivacy concerns for
authorsRead-only files
Faster connectivityBuilt on the ideas of
sharing and participating
2.0? When did that happen?!
Web 2.0
“To take an example from above, Personal web pages were common in Web 1.0, and these consisted of mainly static pages hosted on free hosting services such as Geocities. Nowadays, dynamically generated blogs and social networking profiles, such as Myspace and Facebook, are more popular, allowing for readers to comment on posts in a way that was not available during Web 1.0.”
