The document discusses various topics related to internet and web technologies including: - An overview of how the internet functions and its evolution from ARPANET to the world wide web. - Descriptions of Web 1.0, Web 2.0, and the concept of Web 3.0 which emphasizes machine understanding of information. - Statistics on global internet usage growth from 2005 to 2016. - Examples of technologies that fall under the categories of Web 2.0 and convergent technologies including social networking, tagging, recommendations agents and more. The document concludes with asking members to identify a community problem that could be addressed using technology empowerment and developing a plan to do so.

1. Empowerment
Technologies

2. • How many of you use social media websites?
• What is the most popular social media site?

- is often called the Information Superhighway.
- become a major source of information.
-major means of communication and platforms
for information-based services.
- electronic mail or e-mail
- Internet relay chat (IRC) or chat
- Online games, Social Network & blogging
- and World Wide Web (WWW)

4. Internet
- It is simply the net, it is a large computer
network that is made up of thousand network
worldwide.
- ARPANET (Advance Research Projects Agency
Network) launched by U.S. department of
Defense ARPA (advance research project
agency) in 1969 to enable scientist to share
information and computer resources.
- It is owned by private companies or funded by
government of some countries.
- Philippines are linked to the US-japan
backbone in terms of using internet.

5. World Wide Web (WWW)
• It is one of the services available on the
Internet that allows you to get information
about anything and everything ( text, image
and more) from any web site anywhere in the
world to your computer.
• It is a very huge informal network---
The first billion was reached in 2005.
The second billion in 2010. The third
billion in 2014. And as of 2016 3 billion
where using the net.
• Asia is the large user of the world internet
with 1.8 billion as of 2016.

6. WEB 2.0
- include social networking websites, self-publishing
platforms (e.g., WordPress' easy-to-use blog and website
creation tools), "tagging" (which enables users to label
websites, videos or photos in some fashion), "like"
buttons (which enable a user to indicate that they are
pleased by online content), and social bookmarking.
Users can provide the data that is on a Web 2.0 site and
exercise some control over that data. These sites may
have an "architecture of participation" that encourages
users to add value to the application as they use
it. Users can add value in many ways, such as by
commenting on a news story on a news website, by
uploading a relevant photo on a travel website, or by
adding a link to a video or TED talk which is pertinent
to the subject being discussed on a website

7. WEB 2.0
- One of the most significant differences
between Web 2.0 and the traditional World
Wide Web (WWW, retroactively referred to as
Web 1.0) is greater collaboration among Internet
users, content providers and enterprises.
Originally, data was posted on Web sites, and
users simply viewed or downloaded the content.
Increasingly, users have more input into the
nature and scope of Web content and in some
cases exert real-time control over it.

8. WEB 3.0
• a phrase coined by John Mark off of the New
York Times in 2006, refers to a supposed
third generation of Internet-based services
that collectively comprise what might be
called ‘the intelligent Web’ — such as those
using semantic web, micro formats, natural
language search, data-mining, machine
learning, recommendation agents, and
artificial intelligence technologies — which
emphasize machine-facilitated understanding
of information in order to provide a more
productive and intuitive user experience.”

9. Convergent technologies

10. -is a nonprofit Internet-based radio reading
service, Internet-delivered audio reading to
serve people with visual and reading
