The document discusses the origins and key concepts of Web 2.0. It was coined at a conference in 2004 to refer to second generation web development focusing on communication, sharing, and collaboration. Web 2.0 led to social networking sites, video sharing, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies (collaborative tagging). Key attributes include harnessing collective intelligence, data sharing, and user-centered design. Examples provided are Google Apps, Dropbox, Wikis, and social networking sites.

- 6. In the beginning….. • The term "Web 2.0" was coined at that conference and refers to a second generation of web development and design, that aims to facilitate communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration on the World Wide Web. • Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities, and applications; such as social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and Folksonomies. From Wikipedia
- 7. What is Social Media?
- 8. What’s a Folksonomy? • Folksonomy (also known as collaborative tagging, social classification, social indexing, and social tagging) is the practice and method of collaboratively creating and managing tags to annotate and categorize content.
- 9. • In contrast to a taxonomy, which can be roughly translated as “classification management”, a Folksonomy is a classification scheme that uses a crowd rather than experts to parse content. The idea of a Folksonomy is closely related to tagging, which has enjoyed great vogue in online circles since 2005 at least. • The word Folksonomy is a combination of folks, meaning "people", and -onomy, meaning "management". Literally, this can be taken to mean “management by people” and has nothing to do with classification • A visual representation of a Folksonomy is the tagcloud
- 10. Tags
- 11. Why are tags so important? • The early days of the web, content classification = Keyword Meta • Due to widespread misuse of this function, this HTML variable was gradually dismissed until all major search engines stopped reading its contents (about 2000-2001). • As a result, a new breed of search engine optimization (SEO) has been born: tags. Tags are essentially keywords for each page/article you create. They are purposefully sought out and indexed by search engines and other Web 2.0 sites, such as Technorati.com, who gather these terms and often sort them by date rather than popularity, though Google concentrates on relevance and popularity. • Articles, news stories, podcasts, audio recordings, photos, presentations, video clips can all be tagged easily no matter what type of blog or content management system you use. The benefit is a wider distribution of your content and more opportunities for those seeking it to find it.

- 41. Wiki 1 2 3 • Derived from the Hawaiian for “quick,” wikis are used across the Web as collaborative tools. Invented by Ward Cunningham, they’ve been around since 1995. • As finished products wikis are not flashy presentations. Users focus on creating, adding to, and editing text content using web browsers. • Because they are browser-based editing tools, the technology barrier is low. Wikis can be created and edited with little or no knowledge of HTML. • Team-based by nature, they are logistically suited for group projects. Wikis are increasingly used by businesses and organizations as knowledge management solutions. They have also become staples of university courses to encourage academic collaboration and discourse.
