What is Web 2.0?

Web 2.0

Web 2.0 co-exists and intermingles with many of the earlier generation software and information technology items, although new devices and personal integration initiatives with Web 2.0 have supplanted this new motion on another plane.

In so far as one can use and monitor any device on a global scale, Web 2.0 exists as an entity that cuts down on processing time between peer-to-peer contact and information control or management.

The idea is that as we have evolved as an international community and removed boundaries to encourage personal participation and see software in Facebook, for example, as a development in humans' direction in raw language.

 

Examples:

• www.youtube.com is used frequently in libraries to promote research and collaboration.
• Perhaps even the RSS live feeds that syndicate and thread  information and provide up-to-date database access at libraries especially even fall under a web 2.0 banner, considering the criteria? 
• www.facebook.com is a major player in the great "ideas boom" that is turning over a new leaf in idea implementation across our nation.
