In this weeks lecture, Using the Web, I found the topic Web 2.0 to be Muddy. The lecture describes it as a use of technology on the internet for creativity, collaboration, and information sharing. That’s a very broad definition and I needed more information to understand what Web 2.0 actually is. After doing some research, I found the website Wikipedia, to have a better explanation for this concept and it goes more in depth then the lectures.

Web 2.0 includes web-based communities associated with web applications that work together involving information sharing and collaboration on the World Wide Web. The philosophy focuses on the idea that the people who use media, access the Internet, and use the Web should help customize media and technology for their own purposes. It’s a beginning of a new era in technology by allowing its users to interact with other users to change website content. The technologies by Web 2.0 include blogs, tags, RSS, social bookmarking, and AJAX.
