What's the difference between web 2.0 and web,and between Internet and dark internet ?

It would be best if you gave examples of each.Just short and descriptive answers will do.

What's the difference between web 2.0 and web,and between Internet and dark internet ?
first of all let me explain you the concept of Web 2.0 and later we can proceed to the other parts of discussion.





Web 2.0 doesn't have a very distinct boundary. You can visualize Web 2.0 as a set of principles and practices that tie together a veritable solar system of sites that demonstrate some or all of those principles, at a varying distance from that core. This definition in itself is not really clear in a way how it explains web 2.0.





let me put things easily to you. Imagine a framework, which integrates web services like Orkut, Blogger, Wikipedia, Bit Torrent, Google Adsense, Flickr, del.icio.us, blogs and presented to you on a very rich user interface using latest technologies like Ajax Blueprints etc..,





If we get a little deeper, and understand web 2.0, its a framework which has SLATE capabilities. SLATE means Search, Links, Authoring, Tagging(folksonomy), Emails.





Search and Links features are understandable in their very outset. Authoring Feature may require some clarity here. Authoring enables an individual to put his ideas on net and is open for everyone. Wikipedia is poineer in Authoring websites. Underlying philosophy here is every one can share their knowledge and more importantly any one can erase the traces of misknowledge. check our www.wikipedia.com to understand Authoring features.





In a way what ever I'm doing know is also a authoring feature of Yahoo!!!





Anyway, the next interesting feature is tagging(folksonomy). In conception it is also more like authoring but methodology is different. Tagging involves individuals to 'tag' a specific webpage with a best descriptive word. This would enable the community to search the knowledge in a more effective way. It also has fantastic advantages. check out the websites like del.icio.us ( its not www. del), flickr etc..,





A framework that supports all these features can some how be approximated to be a web 2.0 framework. If put Web 2.0 in one phrase, it is HARNESSING COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE.





I think i 'authored' a lot about Web 2.0 , for me web is common short name for world wide web ( WWW)





Coming to Dark Internet,


The term dark internet or dark address refer to any or all of the unreachable network hosts on the Internet.





It should not be confused with deep web or darknet. The first of these refers to web sites that, intentionally or not, are hard to find. This may be either because there are no hypertext links to their content, because you need to be a registered and logged-on user to access it, or because the content is dynamically generated, for example from constantly-changing databases, and so search engines have trouble indexing it. A darknet is a set of network connections using protocols other than HTTP but still on the public Internet, established in a closed and secretive way between trusted parties only, usually for the purposes of peer-to-peer file sharing.





To understand this distinction, remember that





* The World Wide Web, sometimes referred to as "the Web", is an interconnected set of documents and files linked together by hyperlinks


* The Internet or sometimes just "the Net", is an interconnected set of computers and computer networks, linked to each other by copper wires, fiber-optic cables, microwave links etc.





Thus I think I explained you with every thing you asked for.





have good time,

Reply:They are basically web and internet respectively.
Reply:i don't know about the web 2.0, but i think dark internet refers to the non-mainstream sites, like the ones that don't come up on search engines. they are usually private sites that are either not very often visited by the masses, whose visitors don't go through the usual search engines, temporary sites, etc. and as a result the programs search engines use to find and catalog sites don't pick them up. i don't know how big it is, but its supposed to be pretty large.


hope that helps a little.
