Web 2.0 notes

Web 2.0 was first coined in 2004
It is community based/collaboration
More blogs on the Internet than actual sites. blogs are web 2.0 because you can comment on them and stuff.
Web 2.0 is letting the Internet just go how it needs to go. fighting it would be stopping the progress of web 2.0
Wikipedia,Flickr, Blogs are Web 2.0
Wikipedia because of collective intelligence(everyone can contribute to it being accurate)
Flickr because you can comment on pictures and you can put whatever tags you want on it(collaborative categorization)
Blogs because you can write whatever you want and people can comment and stuff.
Encyclopedia Britannica is not Web 2.0
Google sets the standard for Web 2.0 because it owns blogger(the biggest blog service in the world)
The design philosophy behind Web 2.0 is K.I.S.S.(Keep It Simple Stupid)
