WEB-2.0 To Rock You...!!!!!!!!!!

Hi folks!!!!!!! Here I am again ,this time, with an interesting article on the web era:
I thing everyone of us has heard about software upgradation, hardware upgradation or even operating system upgradation but what about web upgradation. I am sure that most of us out there have not heard about this term. But need not worry I am here to give you a brief introduction on this topic which will help you to know the primary aspect of the net development era.
So here it goes…
Presently we are using the WEB 1.0 technology where the data is being transmitted in the form of packets and is much more user oriented. It has very little or rather no artificial intelligence. The data is simply uploaded in tit-bits and scattered all around. No wonder that goggle throws up millions’ and millions’ of pages when you type in any phrase in its search engine.
The next evolution of the web era is to assemble all the gathered data in a more systematic and comprehensive manner so that a finite number of pages are displayed when you type a particular phrase and its working will be more self oriented rather than user oriented where data will be processed in the background. The WEB 2.0 technology will have the capability to answer the full phrase such as “I am looking for a vacation spot for a period of 25 days. I have a family of four and have a budget of Rs 50,000”. WEB will process this complete in formation on its own and display only and only the matching results. Phew…..! Isn’t this amazing. No need to take out those long maps and spending hours gazing at those small nasty dots, or contacting the travel agencies for the appropriate spot.
Consider the situation when you are searching for a new job. You need a number of Performa’s to be written before you finally get hold of the desired job. Now imagine this simple step just typing in the search engine “I am a computer engineer earning Rs ___p.a. I am looking for a job in and around Delhi which would pay me a salary more than the above mentioned value.” The engine throws up all the results matching to this and do not be amazed to find a few e-mails from the companies regarding the interview.
This is much on the search engine part now shifting our focus on the other part which the WEB 2.0 era boasts of it is intractability YES you got me right it is intractability. You will be able to play interactive games, play real time streaming videos and much much more. The very fact that it took decades to shift from text oriented web-pages to illustration based web-pages. It has taken less than half a decade to move from illustration to video, audio and animations. Google has fast realized this and has acquired youtube (visit http://www.youtube.com for more details) for 1.2 Billion $. See the importance of online streaming. The new era even boasts of video conferencing (though it is not advisable in low bandwidth channels), VoIP services and many more interactive services.
It will not be long before all this is incorporated well before 2010…
So all you folks out there stand firm on your ground as the velocity of the WEB- 2.0 is ready to uproot you………
Till then it is PAWAN NAULKHA signing off……..
