Web 1 was the first version of the WORLD WIDE WEB (also known as W.W.W). Which was shown on computer during the 90’s. Web 1 was static that is, the user was just reading and viewing static images which was not that interesting to the users. Basically, WEB 1 was just reading and getting information on the internet. WEB 1 was dedicated to users who want to search for data on the web. WEB 1 was also called “The Read -Only Web” because it lacks certain functionalities like controls, visuals and interactivity. Some characteristics of WEB 1 are.
I. It has HTML 3.2 elements.
ii. Its pages are static which is connected to a system through Hyperlinks.
iii. Its content did not come from a relational database but a server file system.
That is Web 1.0

Web 2.0 is a World-wide website that shows up user generated content and usability to end user. Web 2 was Centralized which means, data from users has been run by a corporation (an organization). Some of the corporations are Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, twitter, TikTok and many more. Web 2 was created to link users together. It gave a lot of users to share information from one user to another, which makes web 2 interactive. Web 2 is not that bad because without TICKTOK and the other social media platforms, the world would not be interesting to live in.

Some features of WEB 2
. It has dynamic content as compared to WEB 1.
. It gives users the ability to interact with others through social media, Blogging, Commenting, Podcasting and many others.
. It is not limited to a specific community.

There is a speculation where users are not secure of their data been controlled and carried by a corporation. Most users want to get control of their data from the platforms. This is where WEB 3.0 came in.

Hive is one of the best blockchain. Hive is just like bitcoin where you can make transactions on the platform.
