Web 2.0 - Definition

Web 2.0 treats the network as a platform to build upon and improve. It is something that is encourages usability and expand its capabilities when every new user. The business uses the platform to build the applications entirely on the Internet where the users have control. This means that users have more responsibility for the information provided and allows them to interact and gain and experience while using the Internet.



Web 2.0 has altered business practice and priorities as Tim O’reilly says “users add value” therefore the business has the challenge of creating a service and application that users will want and need to use in their day to day lives, this is done by giving the user control over their own space, data or post also O’reilly explains that the applications an data bases on the Internet improve the more people are using them.
