<p>Seriously. And there are some good points both pro and con. Think about it. It uses the Internet. It has a new microtransactional based business model. Has a social model where large numbers of people interact with the Web. Has a new architectural model based around rich content types, content discovery, and personalization, and has a new technical model using low/no cost maintenance, simple programming languages, and new delivery mechanisms, particularly around RSS.</p>
<p>But, then, some folks think <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/ip-telephony/?p=805">Web 2.0 doesn&#8217;t exist</a>, or worse, that <a href="http://www.crunchnotes.com/?p=88">there are traitors in our midst (funny).</a></p>
<p>Seriously, what do we call the &#8220;post dotbomb&#8221; Web? Basically that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re talking about here.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t really care what it&#8217;s called, but Web 2.0 is starting to grow on me cause it only takes seven characters to type.</p>
<p>Anyway, looks like <a href="http://tech.memeorandum.com/051219/p16#a051219p16">Web 2.0 is the argument of the day on memeorandum</a>. Yes, we are a bunch of geeks who don&#8217;t have much new to talk about because all the PR folks in the industry are on vacation. Or so it seems. 😉</p>
