    Study Notes

    Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)

    • ICT integrates various communication technologies, including mobile phones, telephones, and the Internet, for locating, saving, sending, and editing information.

    Web Development Eras

    • Web 1.0: Characterized by static web pages, where content remains unchanged for all users; users cannot manipulate the page.
    • Web 2.0: Introduced dynamic web pages, allowing users to interact and customize experiences across platforms like social networks, blogs, and wikis.

    Features of Web 2.0

    • Folksonomy: Users can categorize information using tags, like hashtags on social media platforms (e.g., #example).
    • Rich User Experience: Content adapts based on user interaction; personalization increases engagement.
    • Long Tail: Services are provided on-demand, often leading to subscription models rather than one-time purchases.
    • User Participation: Visitors contribute content via comments, reviews, and polls, enhancing community engagement.
    • Software as a Service (SaaS): Users can subscribe to software on a needs basis rather than purchasing outright, lowering costs (e.g., Google Docs).
    • Mass Participation: Diverse content generated by users from various cultures, promoting inclusivity and broad perspectives.

    Web 3.0 and the Semantic Web

    • Semantic Web: Aims to allow machines to understand user preferences to optimize web content delivery, as guided by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
    • Challenges of Web 3.0:
      • Compatibility issues with existing HTML and web browsers.
      • Security risks as user preferences are stored by machines.
      • Vastness of information on the web complicating data management.
      • Vagueness in language; terms can be subjective (e.g., "old" or "small").
      • Logical limitations of machines in understanding complex user queries.
    • Convergence: Merging technological advancements to fulfill similar objectives, fostering innovation.
    • Social Media: Platforms enabling users to create, share, and modify content collaboratively, enhancing community interaction.
      • Six types of social media:
        • Social Networks: Facilitate connections based on shared interests.
        • Bookmarking Sites: Allow users to manage links to resources.
        • Social News: Enable users to post and share news items.
        • Media Sharing: Platforms for uploading and sharing multimedia content.
        • Microblogging: Focused on brief updates from users.
        • Blogs and Forums: Sites for posting and discussing user-generated content.
