Response to “Web 2.0 to Social 3.0: The Next Big Thing”

This article gives an introduction of Social 3.0 with its transition from Web 2.0. As we have known, with the collective intelligence application, Web 2.0 has brought users much convenience by collecting and providing multiple information and clever ideas from all around the world. Considered a progress, social 3.0 pays more attention to the collection of intelligence within the idea of synchronous collaboration. Take the example of Google Drive which the article has mentioned. With this software, it is realistic that people work together on a same project simultaneously with different computers. In this way people get more convenience with synchronous cooperation and also collect intelligence with interaction. In addition, with the transition from Web 2.0, Social 3.0 emphasizes more about “social” with its interactional feature, which means people have more communication and interaction with each other from the internet. With the advance of technology, people can use various applications as platforms to connect with each other synchronously on computers or mobile devices, which brings more convenience and effective communication in today’s network era.
