March 16, 2006Renaming Web 2.0
Shel Israel, a co-writer of the book on every blogger's desk these days, said that the Web 2.0 term isn't appropriate, because it sounds like a product upgrade as opposed to what it actually is, the term "that we are using for a new generation of interactive, decentralized web-based services that promise to make the internet better for the users, if not for large companies."
In his post, Israel asks people to make suggestions for a name to replace Web 2.0 before it's too late. Comment here.
In relation to how the blogosphere relates to business, I'd call your attention to a post by Brenda Michelson today, who talks about StrikeIron's monitoring of the blogosphere and quick response to a post she made. She said that was a perfect example of how companies can utilize the blogosphere to their own increased success. She wrote a report about how companies can, and should, do this, available free here.
In related Web.whatever news, our blogger Sandy Kemsley, said it would be cool if a Webinar she'd just watched could be viewable as an iPod video. And Prakash, our web developer's comment on this was: "Are we ready for Web 3.0?"
