| What
you Need to Know - The Context |
| |
The
Web or Internet has only been publicly operational for less than
two decades and it has transformed how both business and consumer
information are created, delivered, shared and archived.
Today, there are over 8 billion wi-fi enabled devices access the
World Wide Web and by 2015 the number will double. The Web has
radically shifted how people access media and communicate with
each other. It has also drastically shifted how 21st Century businesses
operate and how they communicate with their customers including
enormous changes in how companies effectively market and promote
their products and services.
The term "Web 2.0" surfaced in 2003 and is commonly
associated with web applications that facilitate interactive information
sharing, interoperability, user-centered design and collaboration
on the World Wide Web. In general, Web 2.0 sites allow users to
interact with each other as contributors to the web site's content
in contrast to web sites where users are limited to the passive
viewing of information. Examples of Web 2.0 sites include web-based
communities, social networking sites, video sharing sites, wikis,
blogs and mash-ups.
Just recently, Web 3.0 was coined and although definitions vary
greatly, some say, Web 3.0 will bring forth a totally integrated
world, a "cradle to grave experience" of always being
plugged into the global community, i.e. the NET. Others say Web
3.0 will emerge from its innovative Web 2.0 predecessor with new,
unique and more profitable business models. Although the term
is still evolving, all agree that the next generation Internet
will be much more robust, intelligent, integrated to multiple
devices and offer mass diffusion of rich media information in
new and unique formats.
Amidst these transformations, creative developments will drive
a new generation of entrepreneurs to market and promote their
products and services in new ways. Within these new paradigms,
the next generation of entrepreneurs and their businesses will
be able to make quantum leaps very quickly. These emerging companies
are discovering how they and their marketing media are inextricably
and instantaneously linked to their
customers in the global marketplace. |
