Week 6 lecture summary: Web News


There are three different ‘Web Iterations’:

(1) Web 1.0 – Information web (traditional media)
Focus: Companies
E.g. banners, newspapers, magazines, television and radio

         

(2) Web 2.0 – New media (social web)
Focus: Social groups
E.g. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and MSN


(3) Web 3.0 – Semantic Web (making sense of information)
Focus: Individuals

If News under Web 3.0?
  • Specific content delivery
  • No ‘General knowledge’

The challenges of Online News:
  • Seldom people will pay for online news/contents
  • Entitlement
  • Subscription
  • New News
