Web 2.0 tools allow users to participate online through sharing content, tagging and collaborating on social networks and wikis. These tools include blogging, photo sharing, video sharing, social networking, microblogging, and wikis. Web 2.0 positions users to control their own data and participate through architecture that allows services to scale cost effectively while being remixed.
