First they had to create HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) which standardized communication between servers and clients that is first thing done to start the world wide web. The web is a service that operates over the internet. the internet is not the same as the web.

Four design essentials of a Web 1.0 site include:

Static pages.
Content is served from the server’s file system.
Pages built using Server Side Includes or Common Gateway Interface (CGI).
Frames and Tables are used to position and align the elements on a page.

Five major features of Web 2.0:

Free sorting of information, permits users to retrieve and classify the information collectively.
Dynamic content that is responsive to user input.
Information flows between the site owner and site users by means of evaluation & online commenting.
Developed APIs to allow self-usage, such as by a software application.
Web access leads to concern different, from the traditional Internet user base to a wider variety of users.

Below are 5 main features that can help us define Web 3.0:

Semantic Web
The succeeding evolution of the Web involves the Semantic Web. The semantic web improves web technologies in demand to create, share and connect content through search and analysis based on the capability to comprehend the meaning of words, rather than on keywords or numbers.
Artificial Intelligence
Combining this capability with natural language processing, in Web 3.0, computers can distinguish information like humans in order to provide faster and more relevant results. They become more intelligent to fulfill the requirements of users.
3D Graphics
The three-dimensional design is being used widely in websites and services in Web 3.0. Museum guides, computer games, e-commerce, geospatial contexts, etc. are all examples that use 3D graphics.
Connectivity
With Web 3.0, information is more connected thanks to semantic metadata. As a result, the user experience evolves to another level of connectivity that leverages all the available information.
Ubiquity
Content is accessible by multiple applications, every device is connected to the web, the services can be used everywhere.

Web 1.0
The first iteration of the web represents the web 1.0, which, according to Berners-Lee, is the read-only web. In other words, the early web allowed us to search for information and read it. There was very little in the way of user interaction or content generation.

Web 2.0
We are now seeing the infancy of web 2.0, or the read-write web as Berners-Lee described it. Its the ability to contribute content and interact with other web users. It has dramatically changed the landscape of the web in a short time. It has much potential. As examples, look at YouTube and MySpace, which rely on user submissions. Web 2.0 is a welcome response to web users who want to participate in the information.

Web 3.0
This leads us to web 3.0 (extending the vague nomenclature). By extrapolating Tim Berners-Lee explanations, web 3.0 is read-write-execute This is difficult to envision in its abstract form. To illustrate, consider semantic markup and web services.

Web 1.0 – The shopping carts & static web
Web 2.0 – The writing and participating web
Web 3.0 – The semantic executing web

Web 1.0

Web 1.0 began in the 60s, as the most basic form, with text-only browsers such as ELISA, then emerged HTML that made pages more pleasant to the eye, and the first visual browsers like Netscape and Internet Explorer.

This Web is read-only, the user can’t interact with the page content, it is limited to what the Webmaster uploads to the website.

Web 2.0

The term web 2.0, labeled by Tom O 'Reilly in 2004 refers to the second generation of models of Web pages.

It is understood as a new philosophy of navigation, a new way to participate in the network.

His predecessor, Web 1.0, has a more static navigation model, this new format encourages active participation.

The user is no longer limited to access to information, rather creates it.

Web 3.0

A new term, Web 3.0, appeared to relate to the semantic Web.

It is an extension of the World Wide Web, by which data can be found in any language and in formats suitable for all types of software.

It is based primarily on information and its structure, which allows the user to find it more quickly and effectively.

Web 1.0

It is the “readable” phrase of the World Wide Web with flat data. In Web 1.0, there is only limited interaction between sites and web users. Web 1.0 is simply an information portal where users passively receive information without being given the opportunity to post reviews, comments, and feedback.

Web 2.0

It is the “writable” phrase of the World Wide Web with interactive data. Unlike Web 1.0, Web 2.0 facilitates interaction between web users and sites, so it allows users to interact more freely with each other. Web 2.0 encourages participation, collaboration, and information sharing. Examples of Web 2.0 applications are Youtube, Wiki, Flickr, Facebook, and so on.

Web 3.0

It is the “executable” phrase of Word Wide Web with dynamic applications, interactive services, and “machine-to-machine” interaction. Web 3.0 is a semantic web which refers to the future. In Web 3.0, computers can interpret information like humans and intelligently generate and distribute useful content tailored to the needs of users. One example of Web 3.0 is Tivo, a digital video recorder. Its recording program can search the web and read what it finds to you based on your preferences.
