00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.200
most of us don't think of the internet as a piece of software that has a

00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:09.719
version history like your favorite web browser operating system but there have

00:00:07.439 --> 00:00:14.440
been enough big changes that developed more or less organically to lead some

00:00:11.719 --> 00:00:20.439
folks to claim where on the second possibly even third version of the

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:23.080
internet but how did we get here back in

00:00:20.439 --> 00:00:27.519
the early days of the web say up until the early 2000s you obviously had people

00:00:25.240 --> 00:00:31.519
that created content otherwise the web would have just been empty but most

00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:35.559
internet users ERS were relatively passive and that they were generally

00:00:33.239 --> 00:00:39.120
looking at things that other folks made think geoc City's pages with spinning

00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:43.800
gifts and topical directories with bare links when average users were making

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:48.239
contributions they were relatively small think pre-social media era message

00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:52.920
boards or online guest books for people to tell you how much they were in love

00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:57.840
with backy boys lus but although those cute little gifts were considered fancy

00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:02.280
by many at the time web pages themselves were actually quite simple for the most

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:06.200
part lots of pages didn't support CSS Dynamic HTML or other features that made

00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:11.759
your browsing experience more interactive this was what many of us are

00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:13.720
now calling the web 1.0 era even though

00:01:11.759 --> 00:01:18.200
it wasn't known as such back then but the next era of the web predictably goes

00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:22.680
by the term Web 2.0 which you're much more likely to have heard of at some

00:01:19.520 --> 00:01:25.119
point while it's hard to sum up Web 2.0

00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:29.759
is just a single concept a big Lynch pin of Web 2.0 is the idea that web pages

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:33.399
can change asynchronously without having to to refresh the whole thing this is

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:37.399
thanks to Technologies like JavaScript and Concepts like Ajax that allow web

00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:42.439
pages to talk to the server in the background without affecting the rest of

00:01:39.399 --> 00:01:45.079
the web page this made Pages much more

00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:50.600
interactive as opposed to the web 1.0 era where interactivity was more limited

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:54.399
and depended more on proprietary plugins which you might remember from all those

00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:58.640
active X messages that internet explorer was constantly giving everyone but Web

00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:03.280
2.0 is much more than just Slicker operating pages so we'll tell you about

00:02:00.759 --> 00:02:08.039
another crucial aspect of it as well as its successor right after we thank seic

00:02:06.039 --> 00:02:12.200
check out cic's vertex series of power supplies including the gx1000 it's a

00:02:10.640 --> 00:02:15.800
great choice for most builds as it's both silent and power efficient plus

00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:21.599
they're doing some prime Day sales this year so check them out at the link in the description and you could even save

00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:25.640
a few bucks although Web 2.0 marked a big shift in webpage design it was just

00:02:23.920 --> 00:02:30.280
as importantly a new way to think about the internet's fundamental use cases

00:02:28.160 --> 00:02:34.280
instead of being a tool to just get information and opinions the dynamic

00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:40.360
nature of web 2.0's capabilities means that sites are soliciting information

00:02:36.760 --> 00:02:42.239
from you from you from me from from Us

00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:46.040
online shopping sites like Amazon were among the first to exemplify this

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:51.440
concept but early social media sites like Myspace and Facebook quickly got us

00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:56.400
thinking about the web as a tool to post to share to create rather than mostly

00:02:54.400 --> 00:03:00.800
just to consume this also led to the idea of software as a service meaning

00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:04.000
that not only are you you able to use the web as a platform for doing

00:03:02.480 --> 00:03:07.799
everything from looking at Medical Records to betting on sports but also

00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:12.360
that the companies providing these Services can continually update them in

00:03:10.239 --> 00:03:17.280
the background a concept we're obviously very used to today and that has been

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:19.319
monetized heavily by services like AWS

00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:23.319
and Microsoft Aur and Adobe remember when you can just buy a a seat a license

00:03:21.799 --> 00:03:28.599
you can just use the software forever if you didn't want upgrades but what lies

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:32.720
Beyond Web 2.0 right now it's a little bit unclear as there are a couple of

00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:37.080
competing definitions of what web 3 or web

00:03:33.519 --> 00:03:38.599
3.0 might mean the former is the idea

00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:43.439
that more and more services will be moved to a blockchain model to lessen

00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:47.080
our dependence on very few corporations hoovering up all users personal

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:51.120
information providing an in ornament amount of services but given how

00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:56.280
blockchain hasn't taken off in the same way crypto enthusiasts have wanted web 3

00:03:54.319 --> 00:04:01.360
seems like it's more of a possible vision of the future rather than a

00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:04.280
reality by contrast web 3.0 is also

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:08.599
known as the semantic web meaning that the content of web pages would be

00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:12.280
designed to be more machine readable by using tags that would allow outside

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:16.639
services to quickly make sense of information on the page but you could

00:04:14.920 --> 00:04:19.959
argue that AI has already been able to scoop this kind of information and

00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:24.600
quickly create accurate summaries without the need for manual tagging by a

00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:31.199
human in fact there is another Third Way To Think of web 3 or 3.0 as simply being

00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:33.560
a web dominated by Ai and seeing as the

00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:37.840
AIS we're used to are more centralized it's almost the philosophical opposite

00:04:35.919 --> 00:04:41.639
of a web 3 blockchain which is more about privacy and freedom from a

00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:45.400
platform dominated by a small group of huge companies this means that we

00:04:43.400 --> 00:04:50.240
probably haven't arrived at a true successor to Web 2.0 yet and who knows

00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:53.919
what it look like when it does happen what we do know is that Elder

00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:56.680
Millennials will be mad at it thanks for watching guys if you like this video why
