INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION

technologies such as mobile phones, telephone,
Internet, etc. to locate, save, send, and edit
information.

Philippines Business and Industries in 2010, the
ICT industry shares 19.3% of total employment
population.
• Time magazines declared Makati City, Philippine –
Rank 1 as the “Selfiest Cities around the world” and
Rank 9 is Cebu City.
WWW ( World wide web )
• When WWW was invented, most web pages were static.
Static also known as flat page or stationary page. This
referred to as Web 1.0.

WEB 2.0
• Web 2.0 allows the user to interact with the page known as
DYNAMIC PAGE; instead of just reading a page, the
user may be able to comment or create a user account.

Social Networking sites

KEY FEATURES OF WEB 2.0

• Folksonomy – allows users to categorize and


classify/arrange information using freely chosen
keywords (e.g. tagging).
• Rich User Interface – content is dynamic and is
responsive to user’s input.
• User Participation – the owner is not the only one
who is able to put content.
• Long Tail – services are offered on demand rather
than on a one-time purchase. (Amazon)
WEB 3.0
• Semantic Web – is a movement led by the
World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The
semantic web provides a framework that
allows data to be shared and reuse to
deliver web content specifically targeting
the user.
WEB 3.0 is yet to be fully realized because of several
problems:
• Compatibility – HTML files and current web browsers could
not support Web 3.0
• Security – the user’s security is also question since the
machine is saving his or her preferences.
• Vastness – the WWW already contains billions of web pages.
• Vagueness – certain words are imprecise. The words “old”
and “small” would depend to the user.
• Logic – since machines use logic, there are certain limitations
for a computer to be able to predict what the user is referring
to at a given time.

advancement to worksynergy on similar goal or
