2. What is Web 2.0? “… the phrase "Web 2.0" hints at an improved form of the World Wide Web - more than just read-only websites.” “… aims to facilitate creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users.” http://en. wikipedia .org/wiki/Web_2

3. What is Web 2.0? “ In short Web 2.0 is about ideas, behaviours, technologies and ideals all at the same time.” “… Web 2.0 is a conceptual frame, within which we can correlate and make sense of those diverse events even as we use it as a convenient short–hand. What then are the main elements to this frame, the pieces which, together, create the boundaries around the picture of the current state of the World Wide Web? There are four – technology , economy , users and philosophy…” Web 2.0: An Argument Against Convergence by Matthew Allen http://www. uic . edu/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index .php/fm/article/view/2139/1946

4. What is Web 2.0? “ Essentially, the Web is shifting from an international library of interlinked pages to an information ecosystem, where data circulate like nutrients in a rain forest.” From Emerging Technology: Software upgrades promise to turn the Internet into a lush rain forest of information teeming with new life by Steven Johnso retrieved from http: //discovermagazine .com/2005/oct/emerging-technology/

26. http://www. utechtips .com/? p=647 Stage 1 Immersion: Immerse yourself into networks. Create any and all networks you can find where there are people and ideas to connect to. Collaboration and connections take off. Stage 2 Evaluation: Evaluate your networks and start to focus in on which networks you really want to focus your time on. You begin feeling a sense of urgency and try to figure out a way to “Know it all.” Stage 3 Know it all: Find that you are spending many hours trying to learn everything you can. Realize there is much you do not know and feel like you can’t disconnect. This usually comes with spending every waking minutes trying to be connected to the point that you give up sleep and contact with others around you to be connected to your networks of knowledge. Stage 4 Perspective: Start to put your life into perspective. Usually comes when you are forced to leave the network for awhile and spend time with family and friends who are not connected (a vacation to a hotel that does not offer a wireless connection, or visiting friends or family who do not have an Internet connection). Stage 5 Balance: Try and find that balance between learning and living. Understanding that you can not know it all, and begin to understand that you can rely on your network to learn and store knowledge for you. A sense of calm begins as you understand that you can learn when you need to learn and you do not need to know it all right now.
