The State of Web 2.0
Two mainstream news sources try to make sense of Web 2.0, and then blogs makes sense of them. If you're following 2.0 stuff, you shouldn't miss this.
Quoted from Slate:
Newsweek's April 3 cover story finally gives checkout-stand placement to "Web 2.0," everyone's favorite new tech buzzword. You've probably seen the phrase before—in the blogosphere, in the New York Times' coverage of dot-com executives seeking a second act, or in Wired's profile of Tim O'Reilly, the tech publisher who envisions a Net that entices us to contribute as well as consume. But like its predecessors, the Newsweek story pussyfoots around the most important question about Web 2.0: What the hell is it?
Quoted from Dion Hinchcliffe:
Now that Web 2.0 has had its mainstream media coming-out party in both Newsweek and Slate recently, I thought I'd take some time this afternoon and try to get a real sense of the prevailing winds.
By the way, my short post on the older Newsweek piece is here, or you can skip straight to Rafat Ali's excellent summary.
