Author: Bradley L. Jones

Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Web-2-0-Heroes-Interviews-Influencers/dp/0470241993/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1224473530&sr=1-1

 

Quotation

“As messed up as our cell phone service is in the United States, I can’t imagine us in a situation where we always have connectivity.”

 

            I chose to quote this from the book because it says something to the technology that we have today, this does not only apply to the United States but also, here in our country, in fact not only here but almost anywhere in the world, even if we have bad cell phone connections we won’t have any problems with connectivity, because of the technology of the web, the internet, we could have access of connection if we want to communicate with anyone, there will always be available interaction in the internet

 

Learning Expectation

            Before reading this chapter since it has the title “Ebay”, I am expecting to learn what is it about ebay that brings people together, I know transactions are made in this website but there must be something else that has brought people together, engaged in going to this site, I am expecting to learn who started ebay, how do the site earn money from just providing an area for people to have transactions, from just providing an area for business.

 

Book Review

            What I learned from reading chapter one is that there is a site that provides for people to have interaction, transactions, ebay has brought the buyer and seller together, they had provided a relationship for people, also n this chapter I have learned how ebay has made money, I have learned that for every transaction made they make money also, it does not matter to what kind of transaction it is as long as there is a transaction made, ebay gets money, ebay earns money to, in his chapter they also talked about on how people are more attracted to site where it is more interactive, they are like kids viewing colorful web pages, graphical designs, and with animations.

 

What I Learned

            What I have learned from reading this chapter is how ebay had made money from just simply allocating, or providing an area for people making transactions, there are always room for something to be sold, and there will be always someone, at least one who will be willing to purchase that item.

Quotation

            “The Internet over the next 20 to 30 years…is still going to be incredibly   revolutionary, in terms of what’s going to happen.”

 

            I chose this quote from this chapter because I believe in what it says, in what it means, the web, the internet is powerful it can do anything, and I believe that it is already hard for this technology to fall or to die, it has been a while since it has existed, and it will continue to grow, and I believe that it will continue surprising people in what it will do in the future, in the next 20 to 30 years the internet will continue to expand to a technology that we never thought it will be, this is my own opinion so anyone can disagree but for me the internet will continue be a “playground”, a “library”, basically everything we expect it to be.

 

Learning Expectation

            I am expecting to learn in this chapter is who are web 2.0 heroes or what are they, I am also expecting to learn what did the web 2.0 heroes did for them to be considered to be web 2.0 heroes, I am also expecting to learn what kind of influences did the influencers give to the so called web 2.0 heroes and why didn’t the influencers also considered as heroes.

 

Book Review

            What I understood from reading this chapter is that the book talks about the evolution of what the internet has become today, the book showed or explained what the internet gives to the users, what can the internet do, the chapter explains also that it is impossible for the internet to become what it is today in the future, the internet will continue to evolve to something that will continue helping human beings through everyday life.

 

What I Learned

            I learned that the internet is a very powerful toll which has given the human race a technology that has changed the way of living of human beings there has always been a technology that people has just not accepted but today, the internet is what human beings depend on for everyday use.

Quotation

            “People need to be constantly talking to their customer base, constantly innovating and coming up with great ideas.”

 

          This quotes describes what business need to do, to talk to their customers, they should be communicating, interacting with their customers because the customers will give them what they need, what they want, they will getting information on what will be a hit in the market because they are getting the perspective of the customers so they can make innovations what they really want, this quote says a lot about what should be done in the world of business.

Learning Expectation

There are a lot of things that I want to know about on how bloggers get so interested to what they are doing. I am also expecting to learn how bloggers influences people in the internet, the users of the internet.

Book Review

            The book is about on how people should act towards their customers, the chapter talks about how people should be organized in keeping data, how the businesses should communicate to the customers. They should be interacting with the customers, the chapter also talks about how the internet has evolved to what it is today. The chapter also talks about on how the internet is still complicated for some people to use.

 

What I Learned

            I learned that there are still people who are not comfortable in using the internet which should not be the case because the internet is already part of human beings daily routines; we usually turn to the internet for help or to make our tasks easier. There has always been a person who is engaged in the internet and will continue to make the web a more resourceful area.

Be able to be using all this technology is really cool. And I am thankful that I am able to participate in all this events happening at this age.

His chapter also explains that how people are organized in the world and how different they are in the networks, how exaggerated they can get when they are in the network, the chapter talks about how time has taken us to an age of technology is fast growing and being adopted by people today

Quotation

            “Software as a Service is the new model and that’s the future.”

 

I chose this quotation because it says something about our world today, because before you may say that service is kind of old fashion because of all the processes we have to go through and the time that is being consumed just for a simple service we want to acquire but because of all the software that may replace all the services, things has been easier to access and do.

“Because everyone can contribute content, it is hard to focus on the best content.”

           

            Everyone has access to the internet, they can pretty much do almost everything in the net and this gives the users the opportunity to contribute their interest in the net. They share everything they want to and they can let people have access to these interests. There are many things that can be interesting for different people that is why it is hard to focus on the best things because there are many things in the internet that can attract the different interest of the users. The trend changes and it is the one who attracts the users to new interest that is why it is hard to focus in the contents of the internet.

Book Review

            This chapter is about the different things that can we be found on the web. This chapter explains that the web will not run out of topics to share to its users. This chapter explains that Web 2.0 has come to be a marketing term. In a nutshell Web 2.0 is defines the era of the Web we are in right now, just like dotcom was used to describe the last era. This chapter talks about that because of the internet, because of the knowledge that the internet gives, the internet shares, people become more intelligent.

 

 

 

What I Learned

What I learned from this chapter is that there are so many good things in the internet that can easily attract the attention of users even without knowing about a certain topic but once we find out about it we easily become hooked up to it or attracted to the topic. There are many interesting topics that can be found in the web and this will not stop. As long as there is the technology of the web topics will never end in growing and expanding to varieties of topics. We might not even know that we are interested in one thing.

Quotation

“The cost of implementation and the cost of failure are so low that we’re able to prototype and try lots and lots of things, very, very quickly.”

 

            What I think this quotation means that people worry in building application because they are costly, they spend too much money that is why they keep building prototypes and keep trying different kinds of things. They keep building and building and trying all sort of different things to avoid spending, but I think in these kind of mentality they will be spending more than they are suppose to.

 

Learning Expectation

            I’m expecting to learn about the different strategies on how first people decide in building their application. How they determine the cost that they are willing to spend in building their applications

 

Book Review

           Instead of spending millions of dollars on technology, people are able to build a low-end PHP/Linux sort of environment for building pretty much anything. As such, you are able to try out a lot of ideas, many more than previously, because there are lower transaction costs for trying things out.” This what the these chapter is talking about, they say that instead of spending so much money on technology so they go on the next thing that will just cost less. People don’t agree on terms, methodology, technology, parts, or components, and there are radically different ways that people implement and even think about problems. Right now it is deep, magical voodoo.” People have different approaches in building applications.

 

What I Learned

 

                I learned that people are very careful on how much money they are going to spend in building their projects

Quotation

            “We try to allow data to move very freely from one place to another.”

 

I chose this quotation because it says something about how information is open to all, to everyone in the internet. That is why it is put into terms of data move freely from one place to another because it practically does information are freely shown in the internet, where about anyone can gain access from it because of the technology that we have the information, data are easily distributed in the web for anyone to view or to participate in. There are different ways that these data can travel or move from one place to another.

 

Learning Expectation

            I am expecting to learn why did they come up with the idea of having downloadable things in the net, how did this first start out?

 

Book Review

           It is very important to be able to push some of these applications back out of the browser and onto the desktop, but make it as accessible and easy to use and connected as possible.” People depend a lot in the internet for different kinds of information and it is important for them to gain access to these files because these files will be much easier for them to understand if they can get a closer, personal look at. That is why it is important for them to be able to get access and for them to be able to download data. “It is very important to be able to push some of these applications back out of the browser and onto the desktop, but make it as accessible and easy to use and connected as possible.” It is important for them to get these applications into desktops and out of the browsers for them to get a mo personal perspective of the application and so that we can experience it firsthand.

 

 

What I Learned

I learned that it is important that we can have a personal experience with the data that can be downloaded out of the browsers.

“The Web becomes a lot more of an interactive platform rather than just a way to buy or read stuff.”

 

          The web has been pretty much interactive; you can practically do almost everything in the web. Almost the things you do everyday can be done here in the web. Transactions are made in the web, shopping, all sort of things that you even have not imagined there are so much things you can do that is why it is has been a way to do things beyond fro just buying or reading things.

 

Learning Expectation

            I am expecting to learn what else can you do in the web beyoun purchasing and reading and why is it so interactive who came up with idea of having things purchased in the web.

 

Book Review

“The whole point of Open Source is to be able to build apps in an interactive fashion based on people’s feedback, to start with something small and improve based on people’s feedback”. There many things that you called open source in the net, things that can be downloaded on your desktops Companies need to think about how they collect data, use data, and what people’s expectation of privacy is. It’s each company’s responsibility to make the people realize what they are submitting to, what information will be made public, and so forth.” People should be more careful on data they use things can be easily accessed in the net nut not everything you get are legal to use.

 

What I Learned

            I learned that there are so many things beyond purchasing that can be done in the internet.

“Telecommunications is at the beginning of what will be a longer transformation.”

 

Telecommunication is just staring, this is just the beginning of a new technology of soon to evolve to something unexpected, we did not expect that this age will came to be as to what it is today. There are so many things we have today that we never expected to happen.

 

Learning Expectation

I am expecting to learn about the history of telecommunication, how it started and what it has contributed to the world.

Book Review

“In most periods of substantial innovation, which tend to last five to ten years, you will encounter a number of obstacles and problems along the way. This is typical with technology and innovation. “Innovation of technology always encounters problems, this is how it really is, there are always something on the way that might hold back the technology. The Semantic Web is a way to figure out how to structure this whole set of data on the Web so that you can navigate through it much better”.

“Web 2.0 is one of the great technology phases that was mostly consumer- led. We’ve seen a lot more benefit to consumers in this phase and a lot more lagging response of passing these benefits on to enterprises.” Web 2.0 is a technology phase where everything just begins to be easier for people.

 

What I Learned

I learned that innovation does not always go as planned there are always obstacles, trying to prevent it from happening.

Quotation

“Web 2.0 is about how businesses are changing, how people are collaborating, and how people are unlocking content to be used in new and innovative ways through customization, at orders of magnitude of less cost than they’ve ever had before.”

 

Web 2.0 has helped changed the business world. They have done so many things to improve business, people began to be more innovative with the purpose of the web 2.0, they have been creative with different functionalities of web 2.0

 

Learning Expectation

I am expecting to learn how web 2.0 came to be, I am expecting to learn how the people has caught up with the technology of web 2.0

 

Book Review

“A lot of folks that are getting their lead customers and their people together really do cross-pollinate on ideas that a business can try to turn around and harvest and harness and go to market quickly.” Many people are getting their customers in an environment where everyone can share their ideas, their thoughts so that business will be more productive for companies. “Some innovations will be, business-wise, successful, and some will fail. And that’s a good thing. You want to have some successes and some failures, at the right cost point.” Business has come up with new innovations to help their business become more productive and be closer to the consumers, the market, and the customers.

 

What I Learned

I learned the business is using the web 2.0 to be closer to the markets, for them to be productive, for them to get to know their customers more.

Quotation

“Enterprises want to take advantage of the social and collaborative aspects of Web 2.0 but don’t necessarily want the business models of Web 2.0 shoved down their throat.”

 

Enterprises, businesses would want to take advantage of the aspects of web 2.0 but the irony is they do not want to use the models of web2.0, they do not want to be forced in using the web 2.0, they do not want to be forced in doing they are not comfortable in doing, they are all taking advantage on things that they want to be. They want to show the power of the web 2.0 but yet they do not want to be seen using the influence of the web 2.0

 

 

Learning Expectation

I am expecting to learn what is the influence of the web 2.0 to the businesses, what is the purpose of the web 2.0 to the companies, if the web 2.0 has the real purpose in the industries.

Book Review

“The real key is making sure that standards, protocols, and interoperability are there.”

The book discusses that all the protocols, the standards, the ethics of the real use of the web 2.0 is present It is obvious that business models are changing.” Business models are obviously changing their models. The need for developers to be cognizant of the business model under which their application is going to be distributed is greater than ever.”

 

What I Learned

 I learned that the web 2.0 has been helpful to the industries with the different purposes it gave the people; they have given the industries more help
