Recently, the control of the World Wide Web and the personal data of users has almost completely passed into the hands of many big companies, but with the advent of the third generation Web 3.0, which carries a new concept of decentralization of the web, this situation will be rectified and bring sweeping changes to the entire field. Therefore, this idea already has supporters among Internet creators, so we will try to understand what is the basis of the term Web 3.0 and what are the differences that distinguish it from its predecessors Web 2.0 and Web 1.0?

Beginning with the advent of the first generation of the Web 1.0, the World Wide Web was known as just a collection of websites with a lot of static information and no interactive content. Communication means dialing through rickety modems and preventing anyone in the house from using the phone during the call. On the network, the network of AOL chat rooms, MSN messenger, AltaVista search engine and Ask Jeeves engines were very slow, as for playing videos and music it was a fantasy as it took at least a day for a song to download.


The emergence of the second generation of Web 2.0, which was characterized by interactive content:


Tim O'Reilly predicted in 2005 the development of many websites that would combine some general principles with a trend towards interactivity to facilitate collaboration and social networking among Internet users, later this phenomenon was called Web 2.0.
A distinctive feature of Web 2.0 is the attraction of a large number of users to enter and exchange different types of information at the same time, and all this global exchange of information flows takes place at a tremendous speed. -projects, the most popular of which are Wikipedia, Flickr, Facebook and Twitter.
 Over time and attempts, the memory of modems and boring interfaces changed dramatically, and higher Internet speeds paved the way for interactive content, as the Internet was no longer just for viewing, but for sharing. Thus, sharing information helped give rise to social media, and YouTube, Wikipedia, Flickr, and then Facebook gave voices to the voiceless and a means for like-minded communities to thrive.


An important example for us of how important the second generation of Web 2.0 is is that publishing this article on our site today will take only 30 seconds of time, an improvement that came as a result of the time and effort spent by designers and developers specialized in developing content management sites, we can call it the era of “Read, write and publish Read -Write-Publish” – Since the spread of information has become a very simple matter, so we will find here a question that arises, the second generation of Web 2.0 is great, so what went wrong with an alternative?

Information is money:

The third generation of Web 3.0 was designed not to replace the second generation, but to improve its flaws and fix its weaknesses, according to the United Nations report, the number of Internet users around the world rose from 738 million users in 2000 to 3.2 billion users in 2015, so the major digital companies realized that information The personal of users is a very valuable asset, and from here the comprehensive storage of data in central servers began, as do major technology companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook and Twitter, and from here security threats appeared to penetrate the privacy of users in order to increase the gains of these services, whether users know it or not. No, their identities, browsing habits, searches, and online shopping information were sold to the highest bidder.

Web 3.0 revolution:

With the arrival of the second generation of Web Web 2.0 to this stage, users are dreaming of an alternative, so the next envisioned network, Web 3.0, will take us nostalgic for the working principle of Web 1.0 while developing and addressing the flaws of Web 2.0 where more user control and more privacy, instead of focusing power - which is data In the hands of companies with questionable motives, the only controllers of this data will be the users themselves.

Creating a fairer and more transparent webpage dates back to around 2006, but the tools and techniques weren't available until they were realized. Three years later, the term Bitcoin appeared, which brought with it the idea of ​​a distributed ledger, or blockchain, for peer-to-peer digital storage. Its basis, and now we have what is described as the Human-Centered Internet.

How will Web 3.0 work?
To access the decentralized web, there will be a need for an efficient way to enable the user to interact with dApps and other services, individuals will still use web browsers to access the Internet, and in general Web 3.0 will be user-friendly.

bbs network or Steemit will play the role of Facebook and Twitter, Brave will work instead of Chrome and Ethlance can be used as an alternative to Upwork
These are a few examples of alternative platforms and sites, but with the arrival of the 3rd generation of the web to work, new platforms will emerge with a stronger level of competition and will not be controlled by monopolistic service providers, and it is expected to be among the best decentralized applications BBS and decentralized services that we will use three years from now .
