Web 2.0


Web 2.0 is the movement to a new type of design for the internet, with websites becoming more facilitated to become user orientated, with regular people now able to produce as well as consume elements from the web.


 
An example of this could be Facebook. People can consume input from other people, for example other peoples pictures, but also input information themselves, such as status updates (picture 1). Another example could be the ability for people to read news articles and then post comments about what they thought about the article (picture 2)


 
Youtube is also a great example, as people can easily produce their own videos, and then post them online for others to consume (picture 3). Blogger is an example of how people can put their thoughts or work online, for other people to view and comment on (picture 4). People can now also chat to each other online with their ideas and debate, through things such as forums (picture 5).
