Web 2.0
05.8.06 @ 02:35:02 pacific
n. A label applied to technologies, services, and social networks that build upon the Web as a computing platform rather than merely as a hyperlinked collection of largely static web pages. In practice, services dubbed Web 2.0 reflect open standards, decentralized infrastructure, flexibility, simplicity, and, perhaps most importantly, active user-participation. Examples: blogs, wikis, craigslist.com, del.icio.us, and Flickr. [Coined in 2004 by Dale Dougherty.]
