Evolution of Internet Technologies: From Web 1.0 to Web 3.0

 Hi Everyone, 

I hope you had a good day :). 

Today I am going to talk about the evolution  of technology. specifically the evolution of internet technologies from Web 1.0 to Web 3.0. 

You may be wondering, what is Web 1.0 , Web 2.0 , Web 3.0. I am going to explain this for you down below 😊 .

Web 1 firstly is the 'static years' of the internet. this is when the internet consisted of HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and JavaScripts. Web 1.0 can be considered as a read only format. Examples of Web 1.0 would be famous movie information site IMBd and the first version of amazon ( this was back when it was an online bookshop and not what it is today!!) The main aim of Web 1 was to portray as if it is a digital library.

Web 2.0 is more extensive than Web 1. This is when the social aspect of the web came into place. Introduction to such things like ''cost per click'', ''web applications'' and the rise of wikipedia became really popular during this time.  This changed how users used the internet compared to Web 1 as it now had ''read-write'' formatting. By having all these new applications to the web , websites such as Facebook and twitter have been made and made the internet ultimately a more sociable place.

Web 3.0 is also and more often known as the decentralised web. Web 3 is a more individualistic point of view of web technologies as people want to start to take control of their identity and their data. Examples of Web 3.0 would be cryptocurrencies , Non - fungible tokens (both are a form of banking without the peer to peer transactions and ''owning it'') 

How will the rise of Web 3.0 benefit businesses and entrepreneurs?
