Yep, have to agree totally with 7 and 9. Given that you cannot get 2 people to agree on what Web2.0 is, the others are even more fatuous.
I think there’s also a large body of people out there who are angst-ridden as they have been told to believe about this shit, but don’t know where to begin. Believing that is.

Hope you are able to get out of the bubble for awhile and get some clean non-digital air, press some non-web 2.0 flesh, and eat some analog icecream.

Four through ten I get. I suspect the first three come with blog celebrity, to which I can’t relate.

Unfortunately the same can be said about “art” and twenty other subjects we try to ply our livings at.

Web 2.0 — what does that actually MEAN?

By: Scott

Phil said, “what I wonder is why i don’t feel this way about web 1.0″
Maybe because for 1.0, (which wasn’t necessarily labeled as such at the time), even with all the hype most people were too busy building to over-hype. Now, Hype 2.0, (sorry, couldn’t help it), often overwhelms RealDeal 1 through a million point oh.
Also, a lot of what’s going on now isn’t really all that new conceptually. Yes, I know. People claim it is. But mostly it’s implementation and variations on a theme for concepts that in a lot of cases are pre 1.0. Even pre-consumer web.
Maybe you didn’t feel this way about 1.0 because even though the dreams were there, they didn’t have an over-hyped soundtrack constantly running alongside.

I might add another one:
the inflammatory conviction that they are onto something really really revolutionary by rehashing old and passing it as new, creating no new technology, researching for no novel knowledge, developing no new science, and more interestingly: no revenue.

re:10
if we all thought the opposite of talking AND listening was doing would we get more done?
