e tech Flashcards
When the World Wide Web was invented, most web pages were static. Static (also known as flat page or stationary page) in the sense that the page is “as is” and cannot be manipulated by the user. The content is also the same for all users. This is referred to as
Web 1.0
allows users to interact with the page: instead of just reading a page, the user may be be able to comment or create a user account.
Web 2.0
Features of Web 2.0
It allows users to categorize and classify/arrange information using freely chosen keywords (e.g., tagging).
Folksonomy
Features of Web 2.0
Content is dynamic and is responsive to user’s input. An example would be a website that shows local content.
Rich User Experience
Features of Web 2.0
Services 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.
Long tail
Features of Web 2.0
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 comment, reviews, and evaluation
User Participation
Features of Web 2.0
Users will subscribe to a software only when needed rather than purchasing them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a software.
Software as a Service.
Features of Web 2.0
It is a diverse information sharing through universal web access.
Mass Participation
According to the W3C, “The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries.’
The aim of Web __ is to have machines (or servers) understand the user’s preferences to be able to deliver web content specifically targeting the user.
Web 3.0
Several problems of Web 3.0
- 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.
