Examples of Web 2.0
Social Networking
Social networking is websites and apps that allow users
and organizations to connect, communicate, share
information, and form relationships with friends, family,
colleagues, customers, or clients. Social networking can
have a social purpose, a business purpose, or both,
through sites such as: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube,
TikTok, Twitter, Snapchat, Telegram, Pinterest, Discord,
etc.
Blogs
Blogs is a conversation or instructional website that is
accessible on the Internet and is made up of individual,
frequently casual text entries written in the form of diaries
(posts). Usually, posts are shown on websites in reverse
chronological order, with the most recent post appearing at the
top. WordPress.org, Wired, Wix, Medium, Blogger, Tumblr, and
other blogs are examples of blogs.
Video Sharing Sites
Video sharing sites is a website that enables users to share
and publish their video clips to guests or the general public.
These videos may be seen by specific individuals on a shared
network or by the whole public. Platforms for videos include
Rumble, Anchor, Podbean, Vimeo, and YouTube.
Wikis
Wikis is a hypertext publication that uses a web browser to allow
its audience to jointly modify and control it. A standard wiki can be
used to maintain an internal knowledge base within an
organization or be restricted to access only by that company. It
often has several pages for the subjects or scope of the project.
Wikipedia, Appropedia, Astro-Databank, Citizendium,
Conservapedia, and others are a few prominent wikis.

The WEB
WEB
The Web (World Wide Web) consists of
information organized into Web pages containing
text and graphic images. A more extensive collection
of linked documents or content is the World Wide
Web. It has highlighted keywords and photos with
hypertext links that take users to relevant content. A
website is an assortment of interconnected Web sites
with a similar subject or purpose. The home page of a
website is the primary page that all other pages on
the site are structured around and have links pointing
to it.
WEB 1.0 (Read Only Static Web)
The phrase "Web 1.0" refers to the initial iteration of the Internet, which originated with the
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and initially evolved into a global network
symbolizing the forthcoming era of digital communications. It talks about the initial "iteration" of a
developing, expanding medium that finally became a platform with extensive, multipurpose
applications. People can only access the old internet by reading content from it. The initial phase
of global hyperlinking websites. One uses the internet as a "portal for information." It aligns and
positions things on the page using tables. Mp3.com, the Home Page, Directories, Page Views, and
TML/Portals are a few examples of Web 1.0.
WEB 2.0 (Read-write interactive web)
Web 2.0 is the second generation of the World Wide Web, with an emphasis on end-user
interoperability, usability, participatory culture, and user-generated content. It signifies a change
from static HTML web pages to a more dynamic web that facilitates online communication and
information sharing. Through blogs or websites, people are both contributing and consuming
information. Because it focuses on enabling online collaboration and information sharing, it lets
users engage with the so-called "DYNAMIC PAGE"; rather than just viewing a page, they can leave
comments or register for an account. Among its primary attributes are Folksonomy, Rich User
Interface, User Participation, and Long Tail.
WEB 3.0 (Read-write intelligent web)
The third generation of the World Wide Web, termed Web 3.0, is meant to be smart,
decentralized, and open. New York Times's John Markoff proposed this name for the third
generation of the internet. Every web and mobile application in this generation will be updated
with more functionality. It operates on the same two-way interaction concepts as Web 2.0. With
semantic web technologies, distributed databases, natural language processing, machine
learning, machine reasoning, and autonomous agents, Web 3.0 will be more open, intelligent, and
connected. Web 3 will transform the web into a language that the system, not humans, can
understand and classify.

Uses of Internet
Buy and sell products.
These days, social media sites and e-commerce websites can be utilized to buy and sell
goods online. The main example of this is the online shopping applications we had, such as
Shopee, Lazada, Zalora, Shein, etc. Online transactions have made trading possible, and online
payment methods are also being used with the help of the internet.
Social networking
Social networking is the practice of connecting individuals via various social media
apps with people all over the world. We can interact, exchange knowledge, and build
relationships because of this. People can connect with others in the same area, families,
friends, and those with the same interests in real time.
Look for information.
One of the primary functions of the internet is to offer an extensive variety of information via
websites that make it simple for users to locate and search for it. We are currently living in a
turning paperless world due to the internet, as practically all published information can be
accessed online.
Watch & post videos
The ability to watch and share videos on various platforms is yet another result of the
internet's impact. Instead of using a single app specifically for videos, we can use several
social networking websites or applications. These days, a lot of people use Facebook,
Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Twitter to share videos.
School work, jobs, and home purposes
People's lives are greatly enhanced by the Internet, which helps them with household chores,
employment, and academic obligations. With the abundance of material available on the
internet, schoolwork may now be completed quickly and effectively. Companies are increasingly
adopting remote work in large numbers because it increases workers' productivity. Finally, the
Internet has been a beneficial tool in every person's home throughout the past few years.
School work, jobs, and home purposes
Thousands of Internet-accessible online games have been created because of
technological advancements. Games are made available for anyone to enjoy, both
online and offline. These days, some of the most played online games are Mobile
Legends, Genshin Impact, Call of Duty, and Valorant.

Mozilla Firefox
Browsers
The Mozilla Foundation and its affiliate, the
Mozilla Corporation, are the developers of the free
and open-source web browser Mozilla Firefox. It was
created in 2002 by the Phoenix community and
goes by the name Firefox as well. Firefox displays
web pages using the Gecko rendering engine,
which complies with both current and future web
standards. iOS and Android users can also surf with
Firefox. Available on all major operating systems,
Firefox is well-known for its vast collection of
extensions.
Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge's most recent version
leverages Chromium, the webpage-rendering
code from Chrome, to ensure site
compatibility and free up its developers to
add exclusive features. The browser operates
quickly and you won't have the site
incompatibilities that users of the previous
Edge version occasionally experienced. Edge
is now compatible with Windows 11 and
older versions of Apple macOS. You may sync
passwords, favorites, and history with the
mobile versions available for iPhone and
Android. Its privacy and security features, like
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen, Password
Monitor, InPrivate Search, and Kids Mode, go
hand in hand with cross-compatibility.
Google Chrome
Google Chrome is a cross-platform web browser
that runs on all major operating systems. Its mobile
version allows you to synchronize your bookmarks,
passwords, and preferences. It is based on open-
source components and was initially released in
2008 for Microsoft Windows. It's commonly used to
access online webpages. With more over 62% of the
market as of March 2022, it is the most widely used
web browser globally.

Opera
For both PCs and mobile devices, Opera is a free
web browser. Opera has mobile apps for iOS and
Android and is accessible on Windows, macOS, and
Linux operating systems. A Norwegian telecoms
company's research initiative resulted in the 1995
release of the first version of the Opera web browser.
Since then, the browser has undergone numerous
modifications to stay up to speed with emerging
technologies and in response to new discoveries.
Every two weeks, Opera tests out new features and
updates in a quick development cycle.
Apple Safari
Apple is the company behind Apple
Safari, a web browser. Macintosh, Windows,
and iOS devices—such as the iPhone, iPod
Touch, and iPad—can all use it. With the
release of the iPhone and iPad, Safari's user
base increased dramatically accounting for
roughly 54% of all mobile browser usage in
the US. The main characteristics of the Safari
browser—such as iCloud Tab Browsing,
Sharing, Reader View, and Energy Efficient—
help set it apart from competing browsers.
Brave
Brave is an open-source web browser that is
relatively new. Brave Software, Inc. released the
Chromium-based web browser in 2016. Brave
provides a very safe and effective web browsing
experience. It uses minimal system resources and
requires little RAM even when several pages are
