Scene II:
Web 2.0
Being a part of the internet generation, I’ve used the Web 1.0 method of communication and experienced the transition to Web 2.0. Subconsciously I realize the differences but, being an internet user during the shift, I’m not effected or restricted by the changes.
My family got internet when I was in the 6th/7th grade. My first online service was AOL, I can still hear the buzzing of the modem as the connection process window appeared on the monitor of our Mac Desktop. A couple years later, I downloaded AIM and online chatted from there.
With the world connected through wires, mass communication was available; if I wanted to talk to a large number of people I would join a chartroom or send a mass email. Years passed and technology advanced. Myspace was overtaken by Facebook which now has other social network competitors such as Twitter. Blogging and Wikis have made sending a message easier than mass emailing. The list can go on.
In summary, Web 2.0 is the new generation of the web that connects numerous parties online by acting as a platform to enhance business success and expand communication through interpersonal computing, web services and using software as a service.
