Web 2.0 Dead?

A detailed discussion with links about the current state of Web 2.0 ...

"It was bound to happen sooner or later, but it was a little sooner than expected. Richard McMannus explains why Web 2.0 jumped the shark as an follow-up to his Web 2.0 is dead. R.I.P. post. This pronouncement has an impact as he is co-writing a book on Web 2.0 for OReilly Books (with Joshua Porter) and writes Web 2.0 Explorer on ZD Net. In Richards explanation he gives the prime reason is to get away from the hype and cynicism.

Tim OReilly describes Web 2.0 in rather long detail. But in the more than a year that the term has been around it has not been used in any specific specific sense and it quickly turned into a buzzword with little meaning. There are some profoundly different things taking place on the web, when we compare it to the web five years ago. These things seem to be best described by their terms and pointing to what has changed and where we are going now. Richard writes that he will still largely be writing about the same things, but will not be using the Web 2.0 moniker."   continued ...   (Via vanderwal.net)
