- Web 2.0?
- What is Web 2.0 & how does it differ from Web 1.0?
- Is this simply jargon or can we define what is meant by Web 2.0?
- Before we try to answer these questions let’s take a look at how the web has evolved.

- The early web used HTML to define the the structure of web pages
- <html>
- <body>
- <h1>My First Heading</h1>

- </body>
- <html>
- As HTML evolved, form and content became inseparable.
- Enter the extensible markup language (XML)

- This allows the data to be easily extracted and used by another application or service
