Before moving on to web 3.0, which is the subject of our article. What is the web? What should it mean to us? Why we call it 3. Let’s talk about what was Web 1.0, what is web 2.0 and what are our expectations from web 3.0.
We all know the abbreviation www. It located at the top of the web pages. These three letters stand for the World Wide Web. It is called the web for short and it represents the internet. We said that the web means the internet. So what is the internet? We can make the most basic definition as follows. Internet is the state of being connected to electronic devices to exchange data with each other. Connecting to the Internet, which we use very often in daily life, means joining the community of devices that currently connected to each other.
Internet Come into our lives
So how did this idea, the idea of ​​connecting devices (computers in the first time) come about? Web 1.0 refers to the first phase.. The web’s story firstly began in Bell laboratories. We can list the first web features that we come across as follows. Our first feature was that it contained textual content.
We can think of this web era as an encyclopedia that we can read from the computer. In this first period, when only written texts were available, the internet provided by writing, which is the most basic form of information exchange. Another feature was that the user did not have any interaction with the internet. Users were not able to write comments, create a profile, or shop.
When we move to Web 2.0, we come across rich content such as audio, photo and video. Rich content replaces only textual expressions. He can say that the web is now a completely different world, especially with javascript and css. With these, users are now becoming manufacturers. People are constantly interacting with the internet on social media platforms, forum sites and news channels.
The internet we use today is known as web 2.0. Not just textual content.It provides us with an internet service that allows us to transfer very large files in a short period of time. Thanks to high internet speed and high capacity servers, the popularity of presenting applications and tools online has increased.
The Story of web 3.0
Well, let’s come to our main topic, web 3.0. While Web 2.0 offers us many features, what do we expect from web 3.0? In fact, to be honest, we do not expect more possibilities and content than what is presented to us. Only the way it is presented is different. When we look at Web 2.0, there are companies that dominate the internet. For example, giant companies such as google, facebook, twitter are the leading ones.
By presenting it in this manner, we intend to emphasize the importance of removing these big companies. This is 100% useful. We cannot say that everything is perfect, of course, as in everything, there are advantages and disadvantages. We will discuss this issue in detail in another article. Have you heard of blockchain technology? In order to have an idea about this technology, which is behind many innovations, I recommend you to read this article and this video to learn about how it works.
The key point of Web 3.0 is the communication of users without a centralized structure. In summary, it means the removal of giant companies and the direct communication of the user with each other. In other words, instead of going through massive servers, your messages or content delivered directly to the user.
We will see if Web 3.0 can take a place in our lives in the near future. While a large segment supports it, a large segment also opposes it. Which side are you on?
