Web1.0 vs. Web 2.0
3. 3
O'Reilly addresses that the concept of quot;Web 2.0quot; began with a conference
brainstorming session. O’Reilly (2005) pointed out the companies which had survived the
collapse. it seemed to have some things in common. We can say some kind of key point for
the web such as quot;Web 2.0quot;
The term quot;Web 2.0quot; has been developments. There is more than 9.5 million
information in Google. But there's still the amount of disagreement about just what Web
2.0 means, some people questions it? , How 2.0 can be running in our society, and how
people are accepting it as the new conventional culture.
In O’Reilly (2005) initial thought. He formulated his sense of Web 2.0 by example:
Web 1.0 Web 2.0
DoubleClick --> Google AdSense
Ofoto --> Flickr
Akamai --> BitTorrent
mp3.com --> Napster
Britannica Online --> Wikipedia
personal websites --> blogging
evite --> upcoming.org and EVDB
domain name speculation --> search engine optimization
page views --> cost per click
screen scraping --> web services
publishing --> participation
content management systems --> wikis
directories (taxonomy) --> tagging (quot;folksonomyquot;)
stickiness --> syndication

Example of reading story 1
Social Networks
Do the names MySpace, Facebook, Orkut, etc. ring a bell? They probably do because they are
some of the most popular sites on the internet today. These sites are all called 'social
networking' sites because they help people meet and discuss things online. Each of these social
networking sites has its own strengths: MySpace is especially popular among teenagers,
Facebook is popular with college age people, Orkut is especially loved in Brazil, and CyWorld is
the site to visit in South Korea. The common thread between all of these social networks is that
they provide a place for people to interact, rather than a place to go to read or listen to
'content'.
Web 2.0
Social networks are considered to be web 2.0. What does this mean? To understand this, it's
important to understand what the original web did (often called web 1.0). Back in the nineties,
the internet - or web - was a place to go to read articles, listen to music, get information, etc.
Most people didn't contribute to the sites. They just 'browsed' the sites and took advantage of
the information or resources provided. Of course, some people did create their own sites.
However, creating a site was difficult. You needed to know basic HTML coding (the original
language the internet uses to 'code' pages). It certainly wasn't something most people wanted
to do as it could take hours to get a basic page just right. Things began to get easier when blogs
(from web log) were introduced. With blogs, many more people began writing 'posts', as well as
commenting on other people's blogs.
MySpace Surprises Everybody
In 2003 a site named MySpace took the internet by storm. It was trying to mimic the most
popular features of Friendster, the first social networking site. It quickly became popular among
young users and the rest was history. Soon everyone was trying to develop a social networking
site. The sites didn't provide 'content' to people, they helped people create, communicate and
share what they loved including music, images and videos. They key to the success of these
sites is that they provide a platform on which users create the content. This is very different
from the beginning of the internet which focused on providing 'content' for people to enjoy.

Key to Success
Relying on users to create content is the key to the success of web 2.0 companies. Besides the
social networking sites discussed here, other huge success stories include: Wikipedia, Digg.com
and the latest success - Twitter. All of these companies rely on the desire of users to
communicate with each other, thereby creating the 'content' that others want to consume.
