The internet has gone through two successful iterations: Web 1.0 during the 1990s and Web 2.0 during the early 2000s. Web 1.0 was a collection of decentralised static web pages where there were distributed computers directly communicating with each other. It was a “Read-only” era: you could read but could not easily add your voice to other’s content.
In Web 2.0, the internet was transformed from read-only content to content that allowed interactivity, social connectivity, and user-generated content. Web 3.0 promises to hand some ownership back to users by rewiring how the web works. Web 3.0 envisions adopting some tenets of decentralisation seen in Web 1.0 together with the functionality of Web 2.0 which is community-driven and self-governing. While all of this sounds great, it does not come without its drawbacks.
Apply for Introduction to Web 3.0
- The evolutions of Web 1.0, Web 2.0 and Web 3.0.
- Be acquainted to:
- Machine learning, big data web application
- AI-driven bots based on machine learning
- Augmented reality, metaverse virtual world
- Web 3.0 and the use of decentralised technologies such as blockchain and inter-planetary filing systems (IPFS).
- Web 3.0 inefficiencies such as high energy consumption, scams, and scalability.
- Government policies with regards to treating ownership of your own data together with protecting privacy are being developed as well.
- Web 3.0 and the rise of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This would also include Decentralised Finance (DeFi), Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) and even Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) which help groups of people organise and make decisions.
