Web2.0 Analysis

Posted by ferrerljr on February 2, 2009

This is my web2.0 analysis on online magazines. I’ve chosen three to review.

Gulf News

The presence and location of the web2.0 features are located when you open up an article. It gives you choices from the RSS where you want to save it. Other web2.0 features are present through a radio feature which also includes streaming. Live weather news is also available on this site.

For the reader, the purpose and value of the reader-user is so that they can interact with the website. Not only can they read it, but they can save it and bookmark it whenever they want to go back to it again—especially if it’s one of their favourite articles. Same thing goes for publishers, editors, marketers and advertisers. They may want to go back to the site for references. But aside from that, this may also be a way for readers and users to keep coming back to the website.

Digg

The presence of the web2.0 features is also the same as in Gulf News. You click it and you will see the RSS feeds with the article. The RSS can also be spotted in the top right area of the webpage. This site also has video streaming.

There are many interesting articles here and readers would want to save it and share. They could use the RSS to bookmark it, whether in Delicious or in Facebook. It will also be easier for the readers, publishers, editors, marketers, and advertisers to locate their articles.

LiveScience

Immediately in this webpage, you can spot the RSS feeds at the top of the page. Video streaming is also present in this website. Like the Digg, LiveScience has many interesting articles which may want to be bookmarked or shared.

Publisher, editors, marketers, and advertisers use these features to get their works out there on the web. For editors and publishers, perhaps they bookmark those pages if they see errors in the articles that were published online. Then they come back to that page and correct the errors. For marketers and advertisers, it is probably a way for them to see how many people have seen their products or their ads.
