the same that the page “as is” and cannot be
manipulated by the user. This referred to as Web
1.0.

• Example of Web 2.0 : Social Networking sites, Blogs, Wikis and Video sharing sites.
• Web 2.0 allows the user to interact with the page known as DYNAMIC PAGE; instead
of just reading a page, the user may be able to comment or create a user account.
Dynamic page refers to the web pages that are affected by user input or preference.

Key Features of Web 2.0
• Folksonomy – allows users to categorize and
classify / arrange information using freely chosen
keywords (e.g. tagging). Popular social networking sites
such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. use tags
that start with a pound sign (#) or hashtag.
∙ Rich User Interface – content is dynamic and is responsive to user’s input. An
example would be a website that shows local content. In the case of social
networking sites, when logged on, your account is used to modify
what you see in their website.

2.0

Key Features of Web 2.0


∙ User Participation– the owner of website is not the only
one who is able to put content. Others are able to place a
content on their own by means of comments, reviews,
and evaluation.
∙ Long Tail – services are offered on demand rather than on a one-time purchase.
This is synonymous to subscribing to a data plan that charges you for the
amount of time you spent on Internet or a data plan that charges you for the
amount of bandwidth you used.
