Recently landed Renren, found its footer in the side of everyone radio appeared a new function, is everyone gadgets. It's a thing. The point of Discovery is a Widget 2.0 page. I can not help but sigh, this is really a widget outbreak of the era Ah! Combined with the previous trends of the Internet, the author would like to talk about "one-stop service" debate. Because the individual widget already has, but the development has been tepid. The most representative is opera. About this legendary browser company, the author plans to use the form of a topic to introduce to everyone. Here's a little bit about his widget.
From the moment I first contacted opera (it seemed like there was no chrome at the time), I found out that the Widget,opera widget seemed to be rich at the time, and that the features involved were wide, and that in my view their function was not very good. may be foreign companies in the grasp of the Chinese consumer psychology and habits have been deficient. Of course, some people say, Firefox plug-ins are very famous, why don't you say? Because Firefox's plug-in or extended English text is extension, rather than widgets (gadgets, widgets) There is a big difference between the two. The former is to enhance the browser function through Plug-ins, the latter through the gadget in the browser can be done more than the original browser category features. Of course, chrome is smarter, its plug-ins, although the name and Firefox consistent, and netizens are keen to let its plug-ins copy Firefox plug-ins function, so people often see is their blood relationship. Since the news of Chrome OS has spread, have you found that its plug-ins are sometimes purely for the operating system or one-stop service to prepare. I do not want to spend more ink to explore these three non-IE browser's dispute. The center of this article is one-stop service.
So opera is an early attempt to provide such a one-stop service, but like Motorola, it is good at innovation but not good at promotion, this model has been unknown. Until cloud computing turned out, the Web OS became a shining star. The author introduced the Web OS (recommended online operating system) before, there is a good author of the operating system, is a full widget, customization is very high, the effect is very exquisite. But now I can't expect it to have too much to do. Because some internet giants are also starting their own one-stop service.
So what exactly is a one-stop service? The so-called "one-stop service" is actually as long as the customer needs, once into the Carter Service site, all the problems can be resolved, there is no need to find a second home. It is essentially a system sales service. Originally for Europe and the United States business concept, that is, businesses to win consumers, and constantly expand the size of business and commodity types, do their best to meet the needs of consumers shopping without running around. To put it simply, businesses have ample sourcing to allow consumers to buy nearly the goods they need in a store. Of course in the network era, the virtual world can also be simply promoted.
Our side of the one-stop service, the most common is the home of the Web site, igoogle, Baidu personalized home, Youdao personalized home and so on a class of network services; and then there is the network based on the relationship between social networking sites to provide users with more services, which is the most prominent game. The newly emerging Shining Star is the Web QQ2.0 and 360 secure desktops.
WEBQQ2.0 Walk the One-stop network life service platform, when the operating system is the route, this is from its similar to the win series of the interface speculated, of course, it provides services are limited to its own services (by logging on to the Web site found that Tencent will QQ client, TT browser, QQ space, QQ music, search, QQ Mailbox, micro-blog, input method, such as the integration of its products, that is, users through the WEBQQ 2.0 can experience Tencent all the products of the application services and some off-the-shelf company's network version of services. On the one hand, the function of operation is weak, on the other hand, the development prospects are very large. I believe Tencent's ability to cottage. If, as the news says, Asus ' tablet will use the QQ operating system, then let's wait and see.
and 360 secure desktop? I like 360 of the services provided, but also aversion to 3,601 straight playing the banner of security. Because this desktop client is designed for convenience, there is absolutely no security consideration. On the specific services, the author does not repeat, in short, it is very good. Compared to the dock under the Mac. Fruit powder will hit me brick, but the 360 desktop service is the function of the dock, but not the latter exquisite. As for the operating system itself to provide shortcuts, whether it is the Mac or WIN7 dock, have overestimated the operation of the people, the Chinese people for the application of computer tools, the weak exploration of the heart, is most foreign OS providers can not understand. When it comes to 360, you'll think of 3721. Zhou Hongyi The Cardinal is really obsessed with numbers. 3721 was attached to IE on the Red River North and south, and now 360 firmly grasp the Microsoft operating system to achieve their own myths. Of course I don't want my favorite 360 to go on the 3721 path.
In the short term, the 360 desktop situation is a good one. The power that desktop clients bring, basically from each software will generate a shortcut can see the clue, remember 06 or 07 time, Taobao or which site did an experiment, is to occupy the desktop client, in fact, is an IE open the Web page shortcuts, in this way, access to increase the number of n times, But this model seems to violate the site's so-called moral intent, limited to experiments. And Tencent is the most can not be underestimated is that it so many years of accumulated users. So any one of its products online, for the Chinese Internet is a shock. By the way, this is much like the competition between Sina Weibo and Tencent Weibo.
And Renren's gadgets are going to be a little nondescript. Since the expansion of social networking sites does not need to be done through widgets, it is wise to open APIs to attract more developers to stay. And this is the future of Sina Weibo. Because you are a service, only more inclusive, so the social networking network is a soft platform, the emergence of widgets makes positioning ambiguous. Of course, at present, Renren is only in the test, so I believe that Renren will gradually recognize the situation.
The last thing I want to talk about is my view on one-stop service. One-stop service is designed to provide people with convenient access. And in China this magical land, you will find this more is a kind of enclosure behavior. At present, it seems to be unclear, the author insists on the "freedom of information and circulation", I hope that the network of one-stop service do not hinder the normal flow of information. For a one-stop service, I am more reliant on the professional nature of the App Store. It is the gospel of the country, the society and the people that China's internet has been doing its best in its own field. For the one-stop service of information, I appreciate the personalized network without the construction. What do you think?
