What’s the technical definition of Web 2.0? From Tim O’Reilly: Web 2.0 is the network as platform, spanning all connected devices; Web 2.0 applications are those that make the most of the intrinsic advantages of that platform: delivering software as a continually-updated service that gets better the more people use it, consuming and remixing data from multiple sources, including individual users, while providing their own data and services in a form that allows remixing by others, creating network effects through an "architecture of participation," and going beyond the page metaphor of Web 1.0 to deliver rich user experiences.

Basically, it’s a large network , supported by tools, that connects people, ideas, and resources in a global conversation, it’s the Web realized .
