Socialising your web browser

With the advent of free social networking sites like Facebook, My Space, Twitter(i personally like the concept of Twitter), Linked-in, Orkut etc.., communication over the internet has taken a revolutionary leap since 2004.

All these websites started of as small services at university level taking advantage of the innovative concepts arising out of collaboration between the computer world and the society. It has become a way of life for a lot of youngsters worldwide.

Hot or Not ???

For example, the advent of Facebook came about as a spin-off of a Harvard University version of Hot or Not called Facemash. Facemash “used photos compiled from the online facebooks of nine Houses, placing two next to each other at a time and asking users to choose the “hotter” person.” To accomplish this, Zuckerberg (the Inventor) hacked into the protected areas of Harvard’s computer network and copied the house’s private dormitory ID images.

Though he had to face legal charges for his breach of privacy, the next semester he founded ‘The Facebook‘ extending the Hot or Not concept to a larger scope as you see it today. Everyone’s been talking a lot about a universal face book within Harvard and it has now grown to be the largest ‘facebook’ with more than 175 million active users worldwide.

The earliest and crudest form of communication was blogging->articles posted in chronological order and the viewer has an excellent option of commenting on it then and there itself. The other popular offspring was forums.

The Aftermath

These were followed by numerous innovative projects like:

Web - Albums (both private n public) for amateur as well as professional photographers to showcase their talent. Eg:- Picasa, deviantart, flickr, photobucket etc..,

Online Bookmarking and Stumbling like stumble-upon, delicious, Digg, Reedit, Slashdot, Furl, Magnolia etc..,

Streaming Videos popularised by Youtube, Metacafe etc..,

One click file hosting services like Rapidshare, Megaupload, Mediafire, sendspace etc..,

The tantalizing peer-peer torrent technology. Eg:- mininova, thepiratebay etc.., As quoted by Alexa no website in the history of internet has grown faster than mininova.

The World’s Favorite Free Encyclopedia

The most successful concept of them being Free Encyclopedia called Wikipedia which succesfully outsmarted the famous and age-old encyclopedia britannic. The main criteria behind this was britannic is not free, one has to be a premium member to avail all the features.

Wikipedia provides you with same amount of info at free of cost. It would be astonishing to know that the number of full-time employees working with this worlds largest free encyclopedia is mere 22. Unbelievable isn’t it?

How could such a small number of people write so many articles? This is where Wikipedia scores out the Britannica - Wikipedia’s 12 million articles (2.8 million in the English) have been written collaboratively by over 9 million volunteers around the world, and almost all of its articles can be edited by anyone who can access the Wikipedia website. Try out yourself.
