The term web 2.0 has been very foreign to me thus far. Previously i would have thought that it was some kind of program. I came to this conclusion from the "2.0", suggesting the second version of "web", whatever that may be.
After reading the curriculum and the articles provided i was pleasantly surprised. Web 2.0 is not a program, it is somewhat a second version, but with a twist. I like to think of web 2.0 as a concept, the second era of internet.
Now days i am sure that normal internet users would spend the majority of their internet use time in this new era. I know that I myself do, when i am on the internet I am usually using facebook, wikipedia, limewire, utorrent, google earth and youtube.
The most known websites, many mentioned above are all examples of Web 2.0. The video The Internet is Us/ing us is a great clip that shows the real difference between the physical world and the digital world. As the video clip states "Web 2.0 is linking people" and i believe the world is a
much smaller place now than when web 1.0 was around.
