Wiki for the [Webstock] Web 2.0 debate.

Web 2.0 debate

Our position is to argue against the statement: "Web 2.0 is all fizz and no substance"

Philip's Notes

  • web 2.0 = different mindset, tools are (nearly) the same as Web 1.0
  • style vs substance?
  • maturity of the tools: browsers + javascript + databases
  • maturity of the market: wikipedia, blogs, myspace - people now have the mindset/expectation to write online, not just read
  • delicious, flickr - i collect for me, i define on my own terms, i share
  • flickr vs ofoto


  • the means of production have never been more accessible, and more powerful
  • ruby on rails
  • adwords
  • ebay, trademe, craigslist - global marketplace

working anywhere, anytime

  • shescrafty, turntable - working for clients around the world via email, chat, web


Web as platform: The video

  • read write platform
  • web OS

amazoning the news

  • distributed platform
  • network effects - better the more people use it

connecting with friends and family making new friends

Brenda's Notes

  • the body of web 2.0-ish content is substantive in itself
  • numbers of blogs
  • wikis
