ICT HUB OF ASIA
 WEB 1.0

It is the “readable” phrase of the World Wide Web with flat

data. In Web 1.0, there is only limited interaction between sites
and web users. Web 1.0 is simply an information portal where
users passively receive information without being given the
opportunity to post reviews, comments, and feedback.
WEB 1.0
 WEB 2.0

It is the “writable” phrase of the World Wide Web with

interactive data. Unlike Web 1.0, Web 2.0 facilitates interaction
between web users and sites, so it allows users to interact more
freely with each other. Web 2.0 encourages participation,
collaboration, and information sharing. Examples of Web 2.0
applications are Youtube, Wiki, Flickr, Facebook, and so on
 FEATURE OF WEB 2.0

Folksonomy- allow users to categorize and classify/arrange

information using the freely chosen keywords (e.g tagging).

Rich User Experience- content is dynamic and is responsive to

user’s input.

User Participation- the owner of the website is not the only

one who is able to put content.
Long tail- services that are offered on demand rather than on a
one time purchase.

Software as a Service- users will subscribe to a software only

when needed rather than purchasing them.

Mass participation- diverse information sharing through

universal web access.
WEB 2.0
 WEB 3.0

It is the “executable” phrase of Word Wide Web with dynamic

applications, interactive services, and “machine-to-machine”
interaction. Web 3.0 is a semantic web which refers to the future.
In Web 3.0, computers can interpret information like humans and
intelligently generate and distribute useful content tailored to the
needs of users. One example of Web 3.0 is Tivo, a digital video
recorder. Its recording program can search the web and read what
it finds to you based on your preferences.
 WEB 3.0

Semantic Web –
a proposed development of the World Wide Web in which data in
web pages is structured and tagged in such a way that it can be
read directly by computers.
