Web1 was read only (ex. blog)
Web2 is Read+Write (all interactive apps - email travel booking, stock trading etc. However, the content of these are owned by mega or small corp)
Web3 is Read+Write &'Own' your data. By virtue of blockchain tech you can take your data/content and use some other service. You have your NFTs, you have your Bitcoins, you can use any service to manage those.
- pavlov 5y agoSo if “web1” was supposedly read only and the example of that is a blog, who wrote the blogs?
- worthless-trash 5y agoI agree, i had a bigger tirade written about versioning the web, into such 'cleanly' delineated markings, but I know it'd upset the hive mind.
- worthless-trash 5y agoDefining web versions is a jerk move. I know its 'unsocial' and 'nasty' , it has to be said, we should feeding the jerks.
- jeroenhd 5y agoForums were read/write applications that should be part of "web 2.0", and they existed in the early 2000s. Then Gmail came along, which was the first "web 2.0" application, and eventually HTML5 came around the corner, which truly meant "web 2.0" was now ubiquitous. The mega corps took over the internet but in my experience that didn't happen until there were at least three popular "web2" definitions. These terms are meaningless and arbitrary. I've never heard of popularized "read only" websites, even in the late 90s websites had things like guest books where you could leave a comment. I'm also not sure about the legal ownership one might derive from the blockchain. Going by legal standards, I don't think you own anything unless you sign a sales agreement that says the cryptocurrency exchange means something related to ownership.
