Understanding Web 2.0 Terminology — Part 2

Check out this video


In the first part of this article, I explained some of the most common phrases associated with Web 2.0. Here are some more explanations that should help you cut through the jargon. Read/Write Web The internet is no longer a place where users simply view content. Web 2.0 means that users can contribute and publish all kinds of content, thus the read/write web. RSS RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a web content syndication format that allows you to publish and distribute web content. RSS feeds allow updates to be delivered to subscribed users' desktops. Social Networking This generally refers to activities on Web 2.0 websites such as MySpace and FaceBook. These websites allow you to connect and communicate with new and existing friends and colleagues, share information, join groups and more.
