Web 2.0 - More than a feeling
Web
2.0 is hard to define. It is not a technology or a
protocol or a standard, but an abstraction of how people and
businesses use today's internet. Sometimes called a
revolution, Web 2.0 is about services delivered over the
web. The initial concept and design of Web
2.0 suggests an intelligent system that will support all
aspects of human interaction in a virtual space. The
business model of Web 2.0 is to make money. The below
comparison is from 'What is Web 2.0' by Tim O'Reilly.
