Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web 3.0
• The World Wide Web or Web 1.0 is a system
of interlinked, hypertext documents accessed
via the Internet.
• Web 2.0 relies in large part on the user-aspublisher model of interaction and allows for
user-created content to be developed and
implemented by large groups of individuals.
• Web 3.0 transforming the Web into a
database.
Web 3.0
• Web Sites Become Web Services
– “Unstructured information will give way
to structured information - paving the
road to more intelligent computing.”
Intelligent Web = data is getting
smarter.
– Semantic Web
– Filters / recommendations
– Personalization
• Machines talking to machines
• Making the Web more 'intelligent’

Web 3.0 Tools and
services
Using 3D-Wikis / Virtual 3D
Encyclopedia:
• A Wiki is a system that allows one or more
people to build up a collection of knowledge
in a set of interlinked web pages, using a
process of creating and editing pages. Wikis
are playing significant role in content
creation, publishing, editing, revising, and
collaborating for knowledge creation.
Using 3D-Wikis / Virtual 3D
Encyclopedia:
• Suppose a scientific researcher had performed the
search and chose one of the results related to
information about a specific geographical region, the
camera will move to the particular place on the
spinning globe to send relevant audio/video
information. 3D Wikis would be able to provide rich &
effective environment involving all media and
animation, for researchers, so that they can have
better impact on knowledge.
Using Virtual worlds & Avatars
• A 3D virtual world is a mix of 3D gaming
technology, augmented reality, simulated
environment
powered
with
Internet
technology where users interact through
movable avatars. Users create avatars on the
Web and allow them to reside in the virtual
worlds. Scientists and researchers can create
their own avatars on the web & reside in
these worlds.
Virtual worlds
Some popular virtual worlds are: Second Life,
OpenSim, Sun Microsystems MPK20, World of
Warcraft, Eve Online, Club Penguin, WhyVille,
Gaia, WebKinz, Neopets, HabboHotel, There,
Kaneva, Stardoll, PixieHollow, and Virtual MTV,
among others. The most famous of all is Second
Life. Second Life is an online, totally free, 3D
virtual world. It is a net of networks that allows
users to organize in groups and communities of
practice.
Online 3-D Virtual Labs / Simulations or 3D
Web:
• 3D rich graphical user interfaces will act as
a powerful platform for the users to
participate and perform collaborative
activities, sharing results and exchanging
media information among participants in a
more natural way.
Online 3-D Virtual Labs / Simulations or 3D
Web:
• To visit places those are not accessible.
• To promote scientist collaboration.
• To promote assessment through Project Based
Learning.
• To develop scenarios and simulation.
How can all this help
in scientific
research?
Writing on the Web (2.0)
Writing on the Web (2.0)
• In most scientific disciplines, the majority
of academic papers are written
collaboratively. They also tend to
undergo several rounds of revision, with
new content often being added after
peer review and style and format
reworked for target journals.
Online Word
Processing Applications
• The secret to the instant responses of the new
generation of web applications, sometimes referred
to as WYSIWYG (‘what you see is what you get’), is
the use of Ajax. Ajax stands for Asynchronous
JavaScript + XML and, in these applications, is used
to form an extra layer between the server and the
client, simultaneously creating the visible interface
that the user sees and maintaining continual
contact with the server.
WYSIWIG applications
This technology can also be applied to
functions traditionally performed on a
single personal computer, such as
writing,
editing,
and
creating
spreadsheets. One example, expected to
attract more attention
after its recent acquisition by Google,is
Writerly. Also dropbox.
Online Word
Processing Applications
• Google Docs originated from two
separate products, Writely and Google
Spreadsheets.
• Writely was a web-based word processor
created by the software company Upstartle
and launched in August 2005
Virtual Public Networks
• Academics have also begun to realize the
potential of social networking. Like their
business counterparts, sites like Academi
ask members to enter details of their
education, experience and interests. Users
can then form groups and build discussions
based on these interests. This has led to the
formation of a wide range of mini networks
involving academics and those in related
professions from all over the world. Topics
range from obscure, scholarly discussions to
practical advice for PhD students to
communications between publishers and
authors.
Social Media with Web 2.0
Second Life is Second Nature
• The success of many networking sites has been
aided by the ability to add multimedia content.
A genre of social networking site that takes
this further involves the creation of an entirely
new environment, build by members of the
network, in which they then interact. The best
known example of this is Second Life (SL).
Second Life
• A 3D environment created by members
using a simple scripting language and
inhabited by their ‘avatars’, computergenerated animations that move around the
world, create buildings and other content,
and interact with other users.
Second Life
Blogs
• Interactive online sites known as weblogs
are one of a number of personal publishing
tools that are currently propelling science
communication
towards
uncharted
territory.
• Weblogs allow researchers to share and
debate data both before and after
publication, and can reach a wider
readership than many specialist journals.
Blogging is part of a wider movement in
which the Internet is changing from an
online library into a highly interactive
‘social web’.
Blogs
• The power of weblogs is that millions of
individuals can easily publish their ideas,
allowing millions more to comment on them.
Entries are generally connected to other
relevant posts and online resources, and are
followed by a ‘comment’ button inviting
responses. Weblogs created by individuals or
groups can easily be crosslinked to create
online communities. RSS feeds can even
deliver details of the latest postings direct to
subscribers’ home computers and handheld
devices.
Blogs
• During
2004,
weblog
readership
increased by 58% in the United States.
By mid-2005, a new weblog was being
created every 7.4 seconds and the current
• total is thought to exceed 20 million sites.
Wikis
• A wiki is an open-access website that allcomers can view and edit, often without
needing to register. The essential features are
unrestricted editing by users, cumulative
revision of articles rather than previous
versions being deleted, and rapid quality
checking. The basic philosophy of wikis
involves harnessing the collective brain power
of experts from around the world to
continuously update and refine their content.
Wiki systems encourage users to closely
monitor changes, and present a forum for
discussing inevitable clashes of opinion as and
when they arise.
