I'm so used to getting spam comments, so it took me a while to find this. Also because of some server issues.. That's true, I suppose giving the user more power and making websites more of a social network are the main trends. I think things are headed in an awesome direction. Moving desktop computing to the web or cloud computing is an interesting idea and I definitely think we're headed there, but I'm not sure if were ready for it yet. Douglas Crockford gave his keynote today at the Yahoo Frontend Engineering Conference - in it he mentioned both the current HTML standard and the current version of Javascript were last updated in 1999, almost ten years ago! People have done amazing stuff with that limitation, but it will be interesting to see how we progress beyond that. What new type of frameworks or technologies will browsers experiment with so we can get even more awesome stuff out there? :) Thanks for the comment, man!

I believe the difference between Web 2.0 and 1.0 is the way in which the user deals with the content. Again this is just the non technical side of 1.0 vs 2.0. In 1.0 the user could not share the content and personalize the content as easy as it is now. End the transition to a web 2.0 mind set where the user had more power. In terms of technology, 2.0 is more of a Asynchronous based tech approach. Ajax, Flex, Advanced CSS skills, and to a large extent Restful/Web-Service fundamentals (SOA) are what the companies look for when they ask for "Web 2.0 experience" Personally I think there is a slight push now for the term, Web 3.0. 2.0 allows users to share content across many sites while 3.0 will allow content to be given meaning. Semantic Web. :-p I know this post is a bit old but wanted to chime in since i just located your site.
