The History of Web 2.0 (4)

Visiting the missing article from Allbusiness (Fragmented future)

Finally, we managed to contact Darcy DiNucci and very kindly sent us by email article Fragmented Future scanned. After reading it, we have no doubt that this is the document that invented the label Web 2.0 (and pass the Web 1.0) as well) to refer to a new stage of development of the Internet.

Exam article DiNucci, emphasize the following points:

Despite its success and spread the web is a prototype, an embryo. Hence Darcy Dinucci called Web 1.0.

Yet, with its limitations, the Web has been a resounding success, so that a new industry is preparing to develop its full potential, says DiNucci one of the key passages from his article:

This concept of interactive content universally accessible through a standard interface has proved so successful that a new industry is set on transforming it, Capitalizing on its powerful all possibilities

That embryo develop in the future its full potential. In this new stage of maturity called Web 2.0, Web of the future (the Web of tomorrow).

-Among the features of this Web 2.0, Darcy DiNucci first drew a sense of “fragmentation”. Actually refers to the proliferation of channels through which the Internet will be available: television, phone, electrical appliances … The site will no longer be associated exclusively to the computer.
This will mean that the site will be accessed through multiple combinations of hardware and software (hence the first meaning of “fragmentation”).

- Darcy DiNucci stresses, however, that the first signs of aging begin to take this reality. Technical improvements (width of traffic, for example) will allow progress in that area.

Referring in another sense, the title of the article, the final anticipated that many of these early manifestations of the mature development of the website will lead to a multiplicity of incompatible solutions.

With much clarvidencia DiNucci claims to be a plurality of solutions. Said that web publishing is “fragmented”, will be in many different ways, and as a web designer, this is the thrust of the title of the article. This “fragmentation”, she certainly today with RSS aggregators, APIs (programming interface of the application) that allow data connections to an application that can be used by third parties, whether users or other applications (mashups) and Web services that allow access to data dieversas forms (via XML-RPC, SOAP and other technologies).

But sooner or later, the logical development of events, as happened in the past in the battle of the browsers, take a confluence of compatible standards in each field (phone, pda …).

In short, Darcy Dinucci clearly perceived that a new step of development of the Web is beginning to manifest itself. DiNucci focus their thoughts in the field of technical advances that will multiply and enrich the ways of using the web and highlights, especially in improving the concept of interactivity, the ether through which interactivity happens.
If the Web as a platform from which to distribute content and applications is the starting point of the current vision of the label “Web 2.0″, the “ether” of DiNucci, ineteractividad the vehicle seems to coincide roughly with this approach.
On this point I would stress that DiNucci talk of interactivity as a feature of Web 1.0 and its success. I consider it significant because of what critics have come to known as Web 2.0 repeatedly contend that almost everything that assumes as its own Web 2.0 existed previously, and interactivity, as would the inventor of the Web Tim Berners-Lee and This was the vision of the Web from the beginning. When Tim Berners-Lee asked if the difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 is that 2.0 is to connect people to the 1.0 connected mientars his answer is blunt machines, interactivity is the essence of the Web since its birth, This is the web interactivity:

-Totally not. Web 1.0 was all about connecting people. It was an interactive space, and I think Web 2.0 is of course a piece of jargon, nobody even knows what it means. If Web 2.0 for you is blogs and wikis, then that ispeople to people. But that was what the Web was supposed to be all along [...] the idea of the Web as interaction between people is really what the Web is. That was what it was designed to be as a collaborative space where people can interact. (1)

And if one of the hallmarks of the Web as we know it today is now offering documents also provide applications when speaking DiNucci maps and yellow pages in the “dash” car, or updates on flights and quotes bag on the phone, is anticipating the use of the Web as a platform.
It is also clear that DiNucci announces imminent future in which software is not limited to one device and that is a key feature of Web 2.0 as defined by someone who will speak later in a famous article. (2)
When speaking of players who play in red, passing up the field of social web, moreover, is outside the section as well as issues of collective intelligence and other technical aspects.

Ultimately DiNucci announced an enhanced version of the web and some of the traits that characterized the match what is generally understood today by Web 2.0.
We can see that the paradigm shift DiNucci is watching, in part, long before it reaches the baptism official launch will take place, as we shall see, the label she invented, and some of the hallmarks she said .

NOTE: I’m doing an academic research about Web 2.0 and Education. I need help. You are welcome to add your comments, info…And to TRASNLATE to regular english my poor “english”. Even translate 1 line are great, thanks (You can use the comments to do it).

I want to achieve a good translation into English to get help from English-speaking people in my research!
