Reflections on web 2.0

These are some take aways from the web 2.0 video

1. Unlike web 1.0, with web 2.0, the webmaster shares the responsibility with his internet audience for keeping the website informative and engaging.
2. It is a regular place where people gather and interact, not just for storing information.
3. There is a multitude of examples of web 2.0, some of which include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, web applications etc.
4 .Instead of merely 'reading' like web 1.0, web 2.0 allows users to 'write', or contribute to the content available by sharing user-friendly information.
5. Web 2.0 is more engaging than web 1.0. It allows more users to connect and interact, allowing a more engaging experience.
