What’s Web 2.0?

If you like surfing the Internet, you probably have heard about Web 2.0
Based on Wikipedia - Web 2.0, a phrase coined by O’Reilly Media in 2004, refers to a perceived second-generation of Web-based services - such as social networking sites, wikis, communication tools, and folksonomies—that emphasize online collaboration and sharing among users.

DoubleClick –> Google AdSense
Ofoto –> Flickr
Akamai –> BitTorrent
mp3.com –> Napster
Britannica Online –> Wikipedia
personal websites –> blogging
evite –> upcoming.org and EVDB
domain name speculation –> search engine optimization
page views –> cost per click
screen scraping –> web services
publishing –> participation
content management systems –> wikis
directories (taxonomy) –> tagging (”folksonomy”)
stickiness –> syndication
Okay! That could totally be my motto. Great WW!
I will be using this for my global marketing class…Thanks!
