Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the internet as platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform. Chief among those rules is this: Build applications that harness network effects to get better the more people use them. (This is what I've elsewhere called "harnessing collective intelligence.")

"Don't fight the internet."

  Sometimes I feel as though I am fighting the Internet daily. But I couldn't do much without given my current career field.

  I really love this abbreviated definition of Web 2.0. Lately, I've been thinking about how my own patterns of technology use have changed over the past five years and how dependent (addicted?) I've become on the internet. My students are, too, so I think the best thing to do is to find ways to use the internet as a "platform" for learning rather than resisting it (tonk, tonk!) - thinking it through from a critical perspective before implementing, of course!

  I like that you highlighted "Don't fight the Internet" because I have a colleague who received a paper from a student that tried to "argue" that "we" should get rid of the internet and focus on keeping out post offices open. The concept of getting rid of the inernet was ridiculous not only because so many people depend on it (can you imagine), but also logistically. You'd have to cut power to the whole world (I asked if the student had ever seen the Terminator series). I do agree though-it's a wonderful platform for thinking and learning.

  It's ridiculous to want to fight the internet. We have read a lot of articles in this class published by people who were clearly conflicted during the advent of mainstream internet. It's scary to think that something could come out and completely change the way we do everything. It's important to remember, however, that throughout history, changes like this have occurred. There's no use in fighting it.

This is for the visual learners. I think it shows you how quickly technology has expanded and how is has moved from connecting a few people to connecting people worldwide.

Sometimes called the "New Internet" as well as "Internet 2.0," Web 2.0 is not a specific technology; rather, it refers to two major paradigm shifts. The one most often touted is "user-generated content," which relates more to individuals. The second, which is equally significant, but more related to business, is "cloud computing."

lets everyone have their say on anything and publish it to the world at large
- Jamie LaCava-Owen on 30 Sep 11
  
  This makes me think about writing, specifically about the articles that we have read that focus on using technology to make writing a "safe space." In my opinion, the authors of each article we have read, specifically the Hawisher and Selfe, Selfe and Selfe, Selfe by herself, and the Ohmann article all talked about how technology can either connect or divide groups of people, depending on how we use it within the classroom. Our country has had a history with prejudice among races, religions, genders, and sexualities. If used appropriately, technology can create an environment that fosters acceptance. In my 6th grade class, students are being to notice their differences and are starting to feel uncomfortable in their own skin. They are afraid of judgement by their peers, whether physically or academically. I know that being able to publish their papers and have an anonymous reader give them feedback would greatly impact their level of writing. Also, on the issue of publishing--who doesn't want to be published. There is a lot of honor in having something published. Publishing, which seems so unaccessible, has become a more obtainable thing with the onset of the internet. Blogs and wikis make information and idea sharing more readily accessible. I've used blogs to obtain all kinds of information ranging from decorating tips to delightful baking treats. This, too, has connected us a nation, and even a world. Everything is literally at our finger tips. It is easy to say (or type) about how you feel, what your ideas are, or how you see that world. You always have a voice, which is extremely important in a writing class.

This site references O'reilly a lot, as he's apparently the authority on all things Web 2.0. There are many competing definitions for Web 2.0. Some say it's a set of practices and philosophies that help users have a deep, rich web experience. Others think it's a new collection of technology that increases accessibility for everyone. Still others think it's all hype and it means nothing...

Web 2.0 is the term given to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that is focused on the ability for people to collaborate and share information online. Web 2.0 basically refers to the transition from static HTML Web pages to a more dynamic Web that is more organized and is based on serving Web applications to users.

  The first thought that comes to mind refers to the Pew survey we all took that helps define how we use technology. Apparently, I am a "digital collaborator," and the their definition for this seems to fit me pretty well as a user. I bring this up because I use the web in a very Web 2.0 kind of way, and I know my students are digital collaborators on steroids. I am excited that Shelley has been modeling all these different ways of online collaboration that are certainly (obviously...) conducive to a classroom environment.
