Introduction on my Web2.0 technology

I have chosen to research about Facebook. It is a new technology in web 2.0 that allows users to communicate by chatting and even video calling. I’ve chosen Facebook because it’s very popular all over the world.

Links I have found on Delicious relating Facebook:

Lots of people use Facebook in their everyday lives because it’s a major source of communication. Facebook is available on many devices like phones, laptops, computers, tablets and more. But, it’s not available in all countries or in all areas because they probably blocked the website. On Facebook you add friends and that’s how you communicate with other people. As I said before, you can chat and video call. Also, there might be apps on Facebook that allow you to send picture messages to each other. And, you can write on your friend’s wall instead of sending them a message. 

Factors of Web 2.0 - 1

I don't think some Web 2.0 apps are the safest because for example you've got a Facebook account, you can be hacked from different ways. And this isn't something funny because it can lead to something serious. They could also mess with stuff on your account such as send people weird messages or do stuff that can get  you into trouble with other people. 

What Web 2.0 suits us as a student?

As a student, I would say that blogs and wikis would be programs that suit me from Web 2.0. People post information on their blogs and wikis so when we do research, it’s easy for us to find what kind of information we are looking for. Also social websites like Facebook would also suit us as a student because if we have no contact with a person, we can contact them through Facebook. 

Disadvantages of Web 2.0

• There may be viruses.
• Sometimes information may be public.
• Some things take too long to load.
• People may post rude comments or opinions.

What kind of people use Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 has been used by so many different people. It’s a web for all users because it could be used for different purposes. People like business men/women, parents, kids, teachers and teens use web 2.0.

Each user may use web 2.0 for different purposes. Business men/women may use it to collaborate information and keep their colleagues updated. Parents may use it to find a new job, search for schools and even research about new products.
