WEB 2.0--- WHAT IS IT?

"A movement from linking and clicking to creating and sharing. Now people not only find and read information, they create

(Thomas Friedman, The World is Flat)  

"To find something comparable (to Web 2.0), you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the birth of mass media – which, incidentally, is what really destroyed the old world of kings and aristocracies. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers, the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control.”
