"Web 2.0"
From Web 1.0 to Web 2.0. Web 2.0 came about from a brainstorming conference meeting with Tim O'Reilly and MediaLive International and was just a "buzz word" to the next step in internet advancement. Which at first people were skeptical about this new form of the web, will it be successful and advance technology? And is now begun a new era that has over took the dot-com era and is a more advanced system with the technologies of better and improved communication, servicing and data sourcing.
Web 2.0 has changed and uplifted the internet system. Opposed to being a software engine, it is a "platform" system with a do it yourself servicing. You organize and set up what you want. This system goes beyond the norm. Like earlier software and servicings that gear towards the center of internet communication and data, Web 2.0 goes outside the center and also expands to the edges of internet life. A few examples of the advances of Web 2.0 are mp3.com to Napster, personal wedsites to blogging, etc. The list goes on and on with the formations of more advanced web technologies with Web 2.0.
"The Web 2.0 lesson: leverage customer-self service and algorithmic data management to reach out to the entire web, to the edges and not just the center, to the long tail and not just the head."

- Services, not packaged software, with cost-effective scalability
- Control over unique, hard-to-recreate data sources that get richer as more people use them Trusting users as co-developers
- Harnessing collective intelligence
- Leveraging the long tail through customer self-service
- Software above the level of a single device
- Lightweight user interfaces, development models, AND business models
The list above is what O'Reilly highlights as just a few of the principle features of Web 2.0. for the understanding of it and also to have users be aware of companies that say they use Web 2.0 to match up the list of technologies that the company should provide and use with Web 2.0, that they are living up to the standard of having that technology.
This is becoming more and more widespread over the web and it seems that their is not many if any limitations to this system. That this will keep growing with the contributions of users world wide who invest and use Web 2.0 that help the development and feed to all different aspects of Web 2.0.
