Web 2.0 definition

This assignment would have been easier if it was done through Google Docs.  Changes could have occurred in real time and we could have discussed any changes we wanted to make prior to making them.  Twitter may have worked too.  It would have forced us to keep our definitions concise which could have made it easier to understand.

"Web 2.0 is associated with web applications that easily allow the user to share information and collaborate. When I think of Web 2.0, I think of social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, but also interactive sites like Moodle, Gaggle and the dreaded Blackboard. Wikipedia, and blogs are also social media sites. But, Web 2.0 goes beyond these. Web 2.0 is any website that is interactive, allowing the site viewer to make an entry to the website, whether that entry is a “like”, “+1”, “friend”, “comment”, “clarification” or question.  Web 2.0 sites should grow and improve with user input and never remain stagnant."
