7. What is Web 2.0?
Web 2.0 refers to a perceived second generation of web development and design,
that facilitates communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and
collaboration on the World Wide Web.
Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based
communities, hosted services, and applications; such as social-networking sites, video-
sharing sites, wikis and blogs. (source: Wikipedia)
