Web 2.0?
The debate over the use of Web 2.0 continues. O'Reilly's Conference News points to an article in the Miami Herald, What is Web 2.0?
The short story:
The definition of Web 2.0 differs depending on whom you ask.
The defining issue seems to be whether or not a user can edit something on a site, i.e., Wikipedia. One could argue that this is old technology, given that WikiWikiWeb started back in 1995 (if not a bit earlier), it's just easier for user's to modify (post) content.
So, I still don't think much of the use of the term Web 2.0. It's just marketing buzz words for the evolving state of the web.
