Web 2.0

There has been so much hype about this term, but I don't know what it is.

Can someone tell me what exactly is Web 2.0

Don't tell me long stories about how it started & stuff, give me a straight forward reply.

A green rep to all of you is assured.

 

this should help it helped me understand it as well

Wikipedia's definition works for me ...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2

The term is often applied to the look and feel of these sites -- minimal, pared down and simple.

 

Mr O’Reilly tried to define it as:

I personally think it’s been diluted into pure market-speak now and offers little value with no clear definition.

 

Thanks all, rep added to all of you. I got my answer

 

Web 2.0 is the new form of internet termed by O'Reilly!

for example,

Web 1.0 had Britannica Online as the enclycopedia but now in Web 2.0 we have Wikipedia.
Web 1.0 had KodakPhotosharing and Web 2.0 has Flickr.

etc etc.

I hope you understand now!

 

Thanks for asking that!
Its totally one of those things I always pretended I understood but never knew exactly what it meant.

Good one.

 

Lol web 2.0 is so last week, now a days we are interested in web 3.0. you should really be trying to master web 3.0 aplications, designs, and technology. This was just a joke, there is no web 3.0.... or is there....
