Web 1.0 vs Web 2.0
Seems like Web 2.0 is beginning to catch up with Web 1.0…
We live in interesting times.

It means, Manola,
Nerve’s got a payroll and a landlord, and I don’t.
It’s essentially meaningless!
Alexa’s rankings are hit and miss at best. The rankings are based on people that have installed the Alexa Toolbar visiting your site. If you visit a site and don’t have the toolbar, then Alexa doesn’t count your visit.
This is why I don’t get excited about such ‘blego’ meters as Alexa and # of Technorati links. BMA’s daily traffic has almost tripled since Jan 1st, yet Alexa says we peaked around mid-Jan and have slowly been decreasing ever since. Technorati links are just as unreliable, since there are so many blogs that will pass around meaningless back-slapping links like bad gas.
Besides, when you start believing your own hype, you tend to get fat and lazy.
i’m alredy fat and lazy
Well there you go, if it works for you, why not?
There is no Web 2.0.
Save the world by blowing up Web 2.0 here:

It means static v active — so who’s the fat and lazy one here?
