Is the web dead?

August 18th, 2010 by admin

It seems ridiculous doesn’t it, to say the “Web is Dead.” But, that is exactly what Wired Magazine posed in an article this week. The Internet though, is going no-where. So what is the difference between the Web and the Internet?

The Internet has been around for decades. However, the Web emerged as HTML and web browsers starting taking the place of PC applications. Even today, HTML5 has been touted as the next web, when all applications would exist in the cloud.

But as Wired predicts, the Web is being taken place by apps which get you what you want immediately rather than having to search through the web. Apps are more specific, save time, and simplify your connected experience.

As Wired puts it, “the center of interactive media — increasingly, the center of gravity of all media — is moving to a post-HTML environment.”
