What is Web 2.0?

Hello everybody!!

After I gave up my old Word Press blog and decided to create a pretty new Blogspot blog which allows you to have external widgets, I would like to talk about the aim of this blog.

This blog is created to introduce Web 2.0 features and its popular applications. These applications cover social networking web sites (such as Facebook, Orkut, Hi5) , video and photo sharing web sites (such as Flickr, Youtube) , blogs (such as Word Press, Blogspot), wikis (such as Wikipedia) etc.

According to Tim O'Reilly (creator of Web2.0), Web 2.0 could be simply described like that :

“Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as a platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform.”


Here is a short video of Tim O'Reilly about Web 2.0 definition
