Web Thoughts and Statistics All 20 Listed • The 90/9/1 Rule • Top 20 Sites on the Web
Some Web 2.0 Technologies • Wiki’s – Wisdom of the Crowd…Collaborate! • Tagging – I Call it what I call it…not what you call it! • Interactivity (AJAX, FLASH) – Web Comes Alive! • Blogs / Podcasting – Hello World! • Social Networks – Family, Friends, Colleagues • Mashups – Many sites…so little time!
Wiki’s • A wiki is a type of website that allows users to add, remove, or otherwise edit and change most content very quickly and easily. • This ease of interaction and operation makes a wiki an effective tool for collaborative writing. • The term wiki can also refer to the collaborative software itself (wiki engine) that facilitates the operation of such a website (see wiki software), • The first wiki, WikiWikiWeb, is named after the "Wiki Wiki" line of Chance RT-52 buses in Honolulu International Airport, Hawaii. • It was created in 1994 and installed on the web in 1995 by Ward Cunningham
Tagging A tag is a keyword or descriptive term associated with an item as means of classification by means of a folksonomy. - Tags are usually informal/personal by the author/creator - They are not part of some formal classification scheme. Examples of Web 2.0Tags Source: www.wikipedia.com
RIA - Rich Interactive Applications (AJAX and Flash) • Sites change as you use them • Desktop becomes interactive with real-time display of information • Real time calls to the server database allow interactivity • Google Maps was one of the first mass user adopted sites utilizing these types of technologies
AJAX "Ajax isn't a technology. It's really several technologies, each flourishing in its own right, coming together in powerful new ways. Ajax incorporates: • standards-based presentation using XHTML and CSS; • dynamic display and interaction using the Document Object Model; • data interchange and manipulation using XML and XSLT; • asynchronous data retrieval using XMLHttpRequest; • and JavaScript binding everything together."

Flash • Adobe (formerly Macromdia) Flash player is the most prolific media player on the market • New open version called ActionStep allows for open source like development
Blog’s • Web 1.0 – Personal Web Sites • Web 2.0 – Chronological Web Logs (Blogs) • Content is authored by anyone and published • Harnessing collective intelligence – bloggers feed off each other • Enabling Technology • RSS (Really Simple Syndication) • Allows for user notification when updates are made or to push content such as stock quotes, news, etc. • Where Seen? • Journalism, Politics, Business,
Blog Example (RSS Feed) RSS Feeds in My Yahoo
Social Networking • Informal networks that grow virally using some utility • Used for business or pleasure • Can be based on content e.g. video (Youtube), music(Napster), photos(Flickr) • Replaces the need for personal websites MySpace, Facebook, etc.
Social Networks Example Business External – Linked In Business Internal – Lotus Personal - Facebook
Social Networking – Comments on Social Networks 5 Reason Social Networks Fail 5. Privacy concerns - values of older vs. young users 4. No real reward or penalty systems – what do you get for sharing contacts (Linkedin vs A Small World) 3. Not granular enough – no situational relevance 2. Not integrated with other apps – must use network • Walled gardens – networks don’t share information 5 Reason Social Networks Succeed 5. Viral Nature – Spread like wildfire, no advertising 4. Online Identity – no personal webpage required 3. Enhanced Knowledge – network educates 2. Basic Human Need to Share – we are opinionated animals 1. Basic Human Need to Connect – we are social animals Source: Signum sine tinnitu--by Guy Kawasaki (blog)
Mashups • A mashup is a website or web application that uses content from more than one source to create a completely new service. • Content used in mashups is typically sourced from a third party via a public interface or API. Other methods of sourcing content for mashups include Web feeds (e.g. RSS or Atom) and JavaScript. • Much the way blogs revolutionised online publishing, mashups are revolutionizing web development by allowing anyone to combine existing data from sources like eBay, Amazon.com, Google, Windows Live in innovative ways. • Lightweight APIs have made mashups relatively easy to design. They require minimal technical knowledge.
Mashup Example: www.housingmaps.com Combines Craigslist rental listings with Google Maps
