web 2.0

Web 2.0 (coined by Tim O'Reilly) has been noted as the shift from a flat "web 1.0" world to a more dynamic and quick changing web 2.0 world. Some of the key shifts include: the rise of social networking, online blogging, video and audio, and user generated and edited content. People browsing the web now have thousands of new tools and web sites at their fingertips to interact with people and find the information they are looking for.

From MySpace and Facebook, to Twitter, Technorati and Squidoo, the list of Web 2.0 sites goes on for miles. These companies strive to make it easier, quicker, and quite frankly, more fun to communicate and find information on the world wide web.

Resources like TechCrunch and Mashable attempt to keep users up-to-date with the latest Web 2.0 trends, from its use in marketing on the Internet to how it is affecting the general day to day activities people are taking part in online. The fact remains that Web 2.0 drastically changed and is still changing the way we do business and interact on the Web.
