The latter are obviously considered more advanced and easy to use as compared to the Web 1.0. But most of us are confused regarding the changes and the evolution that took place. This article aims to clear out the differences through the below mentioned points.

Web 1.0

Web 1.0 was the first reiteration. Actually it was called The Internet not version 1 or Web1.0. It was generally used before 1999 when experts called it the Read -Only era. The main features of The Internet not Web 1.0 were hyper-linking and bookmarking of the web pages. It only consisted of online guestbook and framesets. There was no flow or communication between Consumer and the producer of the information. Also, the emails were sent through the HTML form. The best examples of The Internet are static websites which were made during the com evolution.

Web 2.0

Web 2.0 was first introduced in the market by OReilly at the brainstorming discussion at media live International in 1999. The information available through Web 2.0 empowered the new generation to develop new concepts like Wiki, Widgets and Video streaming. It also allowed many users to publish their own content through few basic steps, which was not possible in the Web 1.0 or The Internet. Web 2.0 was responsible for the development of various sites that we commonly use today like Twitter, Flickr and Facebook.

Web 3.0
