Web 2.0: Dynamic Web Pages
• Static vs. Dynamic
• Then Web 2.0 came
• Web 2.0 is coined by Darcy DiNucci on
January, 1999 – “Fragmented Future”
• Web 2.0 is the evolution of Web 1.0 by
adding dynamic pages
Web 2.0 Features
• Folksonomy – tagging (#)
• Rich User Experience – responsive to user’s input
• User Participation – others are able to put content of
their own
• Long Tail – services-on-demand vs one-time-purchase
• Software as a Service – software subscription
• Mass Participation – diverse information sharing
What is Semantic Web?
• An extension of the current
web in which information is
given well-defined meaning,
better enabling people and
computers to work in co-
operation (Tim Berners Lee)
• Semantic means “data-
driven”
Semantic Web Examples
Web 3.0 Problems
• Compatibility – html files and web browsers could not
support 3.0
• Security – questionable since the machine is saving his or her
preferences
• Vastness – WWW contains billions of pages
• Vagueness - certain worlds are imprecise
• Logic – certain limitations for a computer to predict what is
user is referring to at the given time.
Web 4.0
• “Mobile Web”
• The next step is not really a new version, but is an alternate
version of what we already have.
• Web needed to adapt to it’s mobile surroundings.
• Web 4.0 connects all devices in the real and virtual world in
real-time.
Web 5.0
• Open, Linked and Intelligent Web = Emotional Web
• “symbiotic” web
• read-write-execution-concurrency web
• will be about the (emotional) interaction between humans
and computers.
• the interaction will become a daily habit for a lot of people
based on neurotechnology.
• for the moment web is “emotionally” neutral, which means
web does not perceive the users feel and emotions.
