Online Applications-
Online applications applications are things such as PowerPoint, Word and Excel. Online applications have the functionality and data on a server which is accessed over the internet so you may only need an internet connection and a web browser to use them. They don't need anything on your computer to download them as they are fully hosted tools. Changes on these tools are easy to do and not very pricey.
Web 2.0-
A Web 2.0 site will allow users of the site to interact and collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators of user-generated content in a virtual community. In addition to websites where people are limited to the passive viewing of content. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites,blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services and web applications, these would be sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
Blogs-
Blogs (short for web-log) could be anything from a webpage for a school account for posting work onto, or even just your thoughts on something which you then posted on the internet. Mostly blogs are based on an particular subject and this way people can communicate using these such as if somebody were to post a blog about cycling, users could comment on the blog to get their view across and then this could start a debate on the matter. As a result of this i believe blogs are a good way to communicate using the internet.
Cloud Computing-
Cloud computing is the use of computing resources (hardware and software) that are delivered as a service over a network (usually the Internet). The name comes from the common use of a cloud-shaped symbol as an abstraction for the complex infrastructure it contains in system diagrams. Cloud computing entrusts remote services with a user's data, software and computation. An example of this would be an App on your phone, such as Facebook or Twitter, which you can use at anytime anywhere as long as you have a connection to the internet

Download speed- Download speed is important factor to how efficient I can do the work. If the download speed is slow this will affect how fast I can edit my website as I may need to download certain software to help me create my website.
PC performance factors – The PC performance factors will be important when creating my website. For instance if the browser doesn’t support my webpage I will need to download a new browser which may take more time that I should be spending creating my webpage. The memory of the PC may not be to the capacity of what I am looking for. For instance I may have images or videos and if the processor speed is slow this will slow down my work and will then take longer for me to make the webpage. This is why I need to make sure that the processor is a good speed so it won’t slow down the creation of my work.
Web server capacity – If the web server that I am using to create my webpage doesn’t have the right capacity I will need to find a new server which can support the capacity that I need to run my webpage. Such as if I have a lot of videos the server doesn’t support my videos this will cause a problem for my webpage and the efficiency.
Hits – Another factor that may affect my webpage is the number of hits I can have on my page. For example some websites cant attain lots of users all at once so my webpage should be flexible to this in order to deal with this.
File types – The file type that I will be using is JPEG or bitmap. I have chosen this file type as they both support my page as the camera I use uploads them as these images. So this will then be more time efficient for me. When I upload videos I will upload them in a MP3 or MP4 format as these are both high quality video types which can be used in HQ standard view.
