Web 2.0 and technological convergence


Technological convergence allows audiences to access media content from multiple platforms on one device. It involves the coming together of information and communication technologies to create  new ways of producing and distributing products and services to media audiences.
A black box is a device that supplies us with all of our informational and media requirements (e.g. a smartphone).

Web 1.0 is how the internet was originally. This is where the media only broadcasted a message.
Web 2.0 is the interactive internet. E.g. Commenting on an Instagram post.

A new episode of black mirror is going to have a chose your on fate.

Fallout 76 is a video game that is eternally online.

Web 2.0 allows you to meet new people you would normally never meet before.


Web 3.0
Artificial intelligence
The internet of things

Almost everything is available to you wherever, whenever and for a price that is much cheaper.
A months subscription to Spotify is cheaper than a CD was (£15).

Video games still mostly come in disks. PS4 is backwards compatible which means you can play PS3 games.

The reason Video games are so profitable is because they use the old model.

    A solid level of detail in the notes regarding the various stages of web 2.0/3.0.

You do this sometimes, but not all the time - e,g. black boxes, web 1.0 is lacking examples. This will help your recall significantly when preparing for the exam.

    Please leave a comment below as a reflection on feedback and explaining any changes you have made.
