What is Web 2.0?

This one’s for the Snook: What is Web 2.0?

  • Web 2.0 is made of 600 million unwanted opinions in realtime
  • Web 2.0 is the air for the next bubble
  • Web 2.0 is made of a collaborator trick to create a hive mind for the Borg Queen’s ascendancy
  • Web 2.0 is these marvellous new clothes that only the emergent can see
  • Web 2.0 is the vapourware output of people moving forward in pushing back the envelope of the corporate paradigm (to the sound of whalesong)

My favourite bit of the article is the the results of a poll that asked whether “Web 2.0” was a “good thing” or a “swindle.” Best. Pie Chart. Ever.

  1. Meh. Everyone knows it’s all about The Cluetrain. The Cluetrain does not have version numbers. All aboard…


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
