We all know that a new era of internet is coming i.e Web 3.0. But before knowing about it we should know what is web 2.0 and how it's affecting our present day to day life.
Web 2.0 describes the current state of the internet, which has more user-generated content and usability for end- users compared to its earlier incarnation, Web 1.0.

Web 1.0 was the first version of World wide web, Its evolution took placefrom roughly 1989 to 2004. Personal web pages were common, consisting mainly of static pages hosted on ISP run web servers, or on free web hosting services such as Tripod and the now-defunct GeoCities With Web 2.0, it became common for average web users to have social-networking profiles (on sites such as Myspace and Facebook) and personal blogs (sites like Blogger, Tumblr and LiveJournal) through either a low cost web hosting service or through a dedicated host In general, content was generated dynamically allowing readers to comment directly on pages in a way that was not common previously
Some Web 2.0 capabilities were present in the days of Web 1.0, but were implemented differently For example, a Web 1.0 site may have had a guestbook page for visitor comments instead of a comment section at the end of each page (typical of Web 2.0),
