Web 2.0

I've been reading about the Web 2.0 for the past year and finally found a decent article that sums up what this means, What is the Web 2.0. This article is well written and summarizes the how the web as platform the 2nd time around is much different than the Web 1.0 (which in many accounts ended during the dot-com crash in early 2001). For me personally, the Web 2.0 is much closer to reality than the Web 1.0 was just due to how mature the companies, technologies and attitudes are today compared to how things were in the late 1990s thru 2001.
