What is Web 2.0 Standard?

What is web 2.0 standard. Which features should we consider while designing web 2 standard site.

 

is not a standard, it means nothing, just a way to define modern sites

 

It generally refers to interactive sites. If you can get others to provide content for you it could explode. Everyone is doing it though. A Wordpress site is web 2.0 Buddypress expands on that. Facebook is 2.0

 

Web 2.0 is not a standard but a term used by Tim O'Reilly at a conference to describe the intercommunication over the internet of services. It has nothing to do with design, look or feel and anyone who says so doesn't know what they're talking about.

 

There is no technical specification or standards for web 2.0, I guess interactive sites, web applications, social networking sites, blogs, video sharing sites etc are to be reffered as web 2.0. I guess fundamental part is give more power to user, user centric design, letting the user to be more active than just reading content.

slightly offtopic, What's there for web 3.0?

 

Yes you do. Even after I posted an authoritative definition, you prefer to guess. As does the next person.

 

HTML ver.4 Or XHTML
with Css ver 2.1

 

See what I mean?----^

 

Oh Yes, You are RIGHT

 

I think you both said the same thing. One was more elegant but harder to understand.

 

web 2.0 is a frame work like durpal and wordpress you can do your site Ajaxified and database driven that will be web 2.0 based as I thought

 

^--- and there's another one! Watch this go on for weeks.

 

I am agree with...drhowarddrfine

 

I wouldn't say so much more power to the user, hence FaceBook's lack of privacy for users but I do agree with the more interactive portion. So I shall create a small post for the "Versions of The Internet".

WWW we could argue is the first iteration of the web, i.e. Web 1.0. This consist of static pages of content served up to those who request it. This was a breakthrough since before 1995-1996 time frame everyone lived in caves and had to club buffalo for food, just kidding. Web 1.0 is best summed up as static.

Web 2.0 which is pretty much in full force now is, how should I say, the dynamic web. Pretty much these are sites that not only rely on authority content served dynamically, which doesn't mean its necessarily true, it also allows user generated content. This can be anything from YouTube to FailBlog.org, also are the SaaS applications that are around the web such as Sales Force, Mail Chimp and the likes. All these are interactive in nature and most are served dynamically using software to outperform the limitations of old tech such as AJAX which can asynchronously load content.

Web 3.0 which is already being well put in place is known as the "Semantic Web". Semantic web has the goal of making the data available more accessible by making content readable by humans and by computers. This might sound confusing at first but if you look at HTML5 it is incorporating more semantic principles. I dare not explain more here but search for micro-formats, RDF and semantics and you will quickly learn what the next evolution of the web will be.

 

More proof that no one on DP ever reads previous posts.----^

 

Drhowarddrfine is a person made out of pure win.

 

Term used by O'Reily but coined by Darcy DiNucci in 1999, specifically to web design, in her article "Fragmented Future". And believe it or not she is a consultant for information design.

I did in fact read your post, but felt it did answer the question satisfactorily. So I went ahead and explained a little about the common versions, even though not really versions just shifts and trends in technology, since someone also asked about Web 3.0. You should try to refrain from snotty comments it doesn't make you look good. Here I can't post links yet but check this out.

I am aware of Dinuccy but, if you read through the article, she doesn't connect Web 2.0 with anything related to design but, in fact, talks about connectivity which is the same context O'Reilly uses.

You are one of the few on this forum that read previous posts. Threads, here, can extend for years repeating what was said over and over; sometimes when the OP got his answer on the same day.

 

Put simply, Web 2.0 refers to user-generated content.

 

Keep guessing Masterful. Or you could read.
