4. Web Tools 2.0
The term was invented by Darcy DiNucci in 1999 and later popularized
by Tim O'Reilly and Dale Dougherty at the O'Reilly Media Web 2.0
Conference in late 2004. Tim O'Reilly described “Web 2.0 is the
business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to
the internet as a platform, and any attempt to understand the rules
for success on that new platform.” While according to Anastasiades &
Kotsiadis(2013), Applications of Web 2.0 can be identified as
technologies for ease of online communication and user interaction.
That depends on users being more involved, collaborative, generative,
responsive and compassionate.
5. Web Tools 2.0
The Web 2.0 differs only from Web 1.0, since Web 1.0 provides
information without user input, while Web 2.0 allows users to
share and create content actively. Web 1.0 is one-way
communication, a lecture or a monologue whereas Web 2.0 is a
dialogue an engaging class discussion or to-way communication.
(Mcleod and Vasinda, 2008) In other words, the web is
transformed from a "read-only" to "Read-Write" (Gilmor, 2007).

While blogs are not intended for educational purposes and use
directly, they have attracted attention from EFL educators as
they are a tool for creating newspapers without needing any
computer programming experience or knowledge (Wu, 2006).
Due to its collaborative nature, language teachers also use it as a
language teaching tool. A blog for educational purposes is an
educational blog.
