Text web vs multimedia web[edit]
The text-web refers to the part of the World Wide Web that consists primarily of text-based content, such as web pages, articles, and documents. The text-web is the original form of the web, and it is still an important part of the web today.
The multimedia-web refers to the part of the World Wide Web that consists of a wide range of multimedia content, such as images, video, audio, and interactive content. The multimedia-web has become increasingly important in recent years, as the web has become more visual and interactive, and as more people have access to high-speed internet connections that can support the transmission of large amounts of data.
There are several key differences between the text-web and the multimedia-web:
Type of content: The text-web consists primarily of text-based content, while the multimedia-web consists of a wide range of multimedia content, such as images, video, audio, and interactive content.
User experience: The text-web is generally a more static and linear experience, as users typically read and navigate text-based content in a linear fashion. The multimedia-web is generally a more interactive and dynamic experience, as users can engage with multimedia content in a variety of ways, such as by clicking, scrolling, or interacting with interactive elements.
Accessibility: The text-web is generally more accessible than the multimedia-web, as text-based content can be easily accessed by a wide range of devices and browsers, and is often more easily searchable and indexable by search engines. The multimedia-web is generally less accessible, as it requires more powerful devices and faster internet connections to support the transmission of large amounts of data, and it is often more difficult to search and index.
Implications for web development: The text-web and the multimedia-web have different implications for web development, as they require different technical skills and approaches to design and development. The text-web is generally simpler and more focused on the presentation of information, while the multimedia-web is generally more complex and requires a greater focus on user experience and interactivity.
In summary, the text-web consists primarily of text-based content, while the multimedia-web consists of a wide range of multimedia content. The text-web is generally a more static and linear experience, while the multimedia-web is generally more interactive and dynamic. The text-web is generally more accessible, while the multimedia-web is generally less accessible. The text-web and the multimedia-web have different implications for web development, as they require different technical skills and approaches to design and development.
| Text Web | Multimedia web |
|---|---|
| Text is presented with minimal markup | Text is heavily styled often with CSS |
| Pages are generally static (dynamic elements are certainly feasible, but they are often minimally styled) | Pages are generally dynamic |
| Page is designed to be read | Page is designed to be seen, heard, and read |
| Design of content and markup is often rather sparse and utilitarian | Design of content and markup is often called "rich media". |
Do you understand this?[edit]
This is part of the evolution of the web. Students should be familiar with the tools that allow the use of multimedia.
