➡️What is web 1.0 ?
Web 1.0 refers to the first stage of the development of the World Wide Web. Earlier, there were only a few content creators in Web 1.0, with the vast majority of users consuming content.
Previously, personal web pages were quite popular, and consisted mainly of static pages that are hosted on web servers managed by internet service providers, or on free web hosting services.
In Web 1.0 ads are blocked on websites while surfing the internet. Web 1.0 is a content delivery network (CDN), which allows displaying a piece of information on websites, and can be used as a personal website.
🔻Properties of web 1.0 .
🔹The information that is published is fixed, and it can only be published or changed by the owner of the site.
The visitor can only read the information, without the ability to write comments or make edits.
🔹The information is displayed for reading only, and the site owner can change it based on his desire.
The goal is to search for information and read it without any interaction from the reader.
🔻Examples of web 1.0 .
🔹Chat rooms.
🔹Virtual lessons.
🔹E-mail address.
🔹Video conferencing.
🔹Newsgroups
➡️What is web 2 ?
Web 2.0 refers to global websites that highlight user-generated content, usability and operability by end users.
Web 2.0 is also called the participatory social web. It does not refer to the modification of any technical specifications, but to the modification of the way Web pages are designed and used. The transition is considered useful, but not visible when changes occur.
🔻Properties of Web 2.0.
The content is dynamic and responds to user inputs.
Development of site interfaces to allow self-use.
It allows users to retrieve and classify information.
The presence of interaction between the site owner and the user via rating and comments.
🔻Examples of Web 2.0 .
Podcasting or podcasting.
Feeds of RSS sites.
Wiki Wiki sites.
Electronic blogs.
Social media networks.
➡️What is web 3?
Web 3.0 refers to the evolution of web use and interaction that involves changing the web into a database. It enables the back-End of the web to be upgraded, after a long time of focusing on the front-end (Web 2.0 was mainly about AJAX, tagging, and another innovation for the front-end user experience).
Web 3.0 is a term used to describe many developments in the use of the web and the interaction of many paths. Where the data is not owned by a specific person, but has been shared.
The services show different views of the same web and the same data. Web 3.0 promises to create and display “information in the world” in a more logical way than Google can achieve with the current search engine scheme. This is especially true from the perspective of the machine concept rather than human understanding.
The semantic web entails the use of a definitional existential language like OWL to produce domain-specific algorithms, which machines can use to think about information and come to new conclusions, and not just match keywords when the search process
🔻Properties of Web 3.0 .
🔹Semantic web, which allows to improve search capabilities by understanding information instead of using keywords.
🔹The use of artificial intelligence technologies.
🔹It contains open source technologies.
🔹The possibility of automatic updating on an ongoing basis.
🔻Examples of Web 3.
🔹Decentralization:
As we have already noted, web 3 is about decentralization, stripping institutions of their authority and transferring this authority to individuals.
And although such a decentralized internet can weaken the strength of educational institutions, in return it will provide more opportunities for students to learn.
In a decentralized learning environment, students will not be bound by the restrictions imposed by schools and universities on the content provided to them, as they will have access to valuable resources, educational experts and wider content in multimedia environments and immersive with many experiences in the physical and digital worlds.
🔹Blockchain technology :
Web 3 is mainly based on blockchain technology – Blockchain, which allows data to be stored in a different way from a centralized database infrastructure. Through this technology, students can record and document their educational achievements without having to rely on university documentation.
Since authenticated information cannot be manipulated via blockchain, this technology will also be an excellent way to view courses and programs supported by institutional signatures.
🔹Metaverse:
Metaverse – Metaverse or the so-called virtual worlds, is one of the most prominent technologies closely related to the third generation of the internet.
Through this technology, teachers can take students to virtual spaces, through which educational content is presented in a more interactive way.
🔹Three-dimensional graphics:
Web 3 is planned to integrate the use of three-dimensional graphics, virtual reality and augmented reality devices to provide users with a realistic browsing experience. This will contribute to creating a more interactive learning experience for students.
🔹Artificial intelligence and machine learning:
The third generation of the internet is set to benefit a lot from machine learning, which is a subset of artificial intelligence – AI, simulating human learning using data and algorithms. This is expected to improve the accuracy of targeting educational content.
🔹Decentralized Autonomous Organizations – DAOs:
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations-DAOs, are one of the most important hubs of the web 3, they refer to online communities, under the ownership and management of their members. It is likely that there will be independent decentralized educational organizations, mainly focused on improving online educational systems, which will be known as EdDAOs.
These organizations will be managed independently, away from any central authority or hierarchical management, by allowing members to participate and vote on decisions, based on the ownership of digital assets within them.
➡️Are Metaverse and Web 3.0 interrelated?
Web 3 and Metaverse are not interrelated, Metaverse is about creating digital avatars and interacting with others in virtual spaces. Whether it is Offices or corridors, also in the world of Metaverse Blockchain does not have to be the basis.
➡️What is Web 4.0 ?
Web 4.0-independent, proactive, self-learning, collaborative, and content generation services. Quite mature semantic and heuristic technologies, as well as artificial intelligence are the basis. They use web databases and support them through smart agents. Examples include services that interact with sensors and implants, natural language services, or virtual reality services.
The purpose of network 4.0 is to add more complexity and higher intelligence levels to it. Our software agent (s) who are roaming online may communicate with other such agents. They form systems that work together to get things done for us.
🔻Web 4.0 requirements.
The requirements for web 4.0 are absolute presence, identity and connection. There is no real definition of the new web yet.
The internet.
The use of RFIDs is already common in many industries and is constantly being expanded. RFID tags (radio frequency identification), for example, in supply chain systems, car assembly, agriculture. One of the sectors that will completely change thanks to Web 4.0 is retail shopping. The development of three-dimensional browsers will allow you to physically go to showrooms and stores to search for products you like. If we decide to buy, our personal assistant will warn us if the same item is cheaper on another site. Web 3 will completely change the customer experience because as a customer we will be in complete control.
🔹Merger:
Companies will be able to link to other companies using web 4.0. This allows them to offer new services at a lower price. This will lead to unexpected mergers between very different companies which, however, will mutually benefit from the merger. Web 4.0 makes it easier for different types of companies to share information and combine services.
🔹Office buildings and web 4.0:
Web 4.0 is also making its way to the office building. Buildings usually have 20-30 ecosystems, such as lighting and water. Web 4.0 is literally the"Internet of things" in the office building, because each device has an IP address. The first "smart buildings" like The Edge have already been developed in Amsterdam. Such buildings have an IP platform on which all building systems are integrated using the web. Sensors are connected to systems and are able to detect changes. Building systems can respond automatically and act proactively.
🔹Web 4.0 is the Internet of people:
As web 4.0 matures, it will create new symbiotic relationships between humans and machines. The web4.0 connection between man and machine has already begun to appear. Alarm systems and cable companies are two different providers, but they are related by their work in your favor. Consumers thus have access to low-cost security solutions using existing broadband connections and low-cost webcams.
Amnesty International agents.
In Web 4.0, the symbiotic relationship is further extended by acting as an agent on behalf of the user. Using facial recognition, the electronic agent will recognize users by their voice through an internet-connected device. Electronic agent
In the end, I would like to say that developments will not only stop at Web 4, but there will be other generations, because the world is becoming rapidly developing .
