Web 2.0 - Challenge # 15

There seem to be a lot of definitions of Web 2.o out there.

There's even talk of a Web 3.0.

Wikipedia's definition: a perceived second generation of web-based communities and hosted services — such as social-networking sites, wikis and folksonomies — which facilitate collaboration and sharing between users.

From Wordspy: A second phase in the evolution of the World Wide Web where developers use new technologies to create websites that look and act like desktop programs and encourage collaboration and communication between users.

Basically, Web 2.0 is pulling together many of the elements that we're encountering in our Challenges here. Some of these elements were present in Myspace. That's where I first blogged and found music videos, among other things. It also allowed me to reconnect with people I hadn't heard from since the '80s.

I read some of the "Library 2.o and 'Library 2.0'" article from Cites and Insights, but found it to be a bit of a mess, doing more to confuse on the topic of Library 2.0 than illuminate.
