What is Web 2.0?
April 23rd, 2007
Someone asked me earlier today what Web 2.0 is. There’s a lot of stuff out there that could be called Web 2.0, but the most succinct way I have to describe it is like this:
The first iteration of the web was about creating destinations. A virtual exhibit, or cool music and photos, or good articles. Web 2.0 is all that, but more importantly it’s about creating what’s in-between.
It’s about creating that in-between stuff whether it be a type of interaction, a way of connecting different resources, or creating community.
