ooh! web 2.0!

pretty. (well, the conference venue certainly is! :)

me wants in! sign me up!

apparently these are some examples of "web 2.0", so says mr o'reilly (and he should know, he's a geekgod™)

In our initial brainstorming, we formulated our sense of Web 2.0 by example:

Web 1.0		Web 2.0
DoubleClick	-->	Google AdSense
Ofoto	-->	Flickr
Akamai	-->	BitTorrent
mp3.com	-->	Napster
Britannica Online	-->	Wikipedia
personal websites	-->	blogging
evite	-->	upcoming.org and EVDB
domain name speculation	-->	search engine optimization
page views	-->	cost per click
screen scraping	-->	web services
publishing	-->	participation
content management systems	-->	wikis
directories (taxonomy)	-->	tagging ("folksonomy")
stickiness	-->	syndication

so, in short, web 2.0 is just like what we have now. only more so ... yeah!
