WEB 2.0

Web 2.0 is a wide variety of web based tools that allow users to do a multitude of tasks online that were not available until recently. The world of communication is changing as we are entering a new era in which social networking sites are a major form of communication. Tools such as Skype and Tokbox make visual communication a reality. I think the most important thing about web 2.0 is that it allows users to collaborate on projects. With applications like google docs people can come together online and create something unique that each of these people can edit. Whats even better is that the people who are collaborating on a project whether it's a presentation for work or school a web site or just a basic document, do not have to even physically meet. Web 2.0 allows users the ability to access this web information from anywhere that has the internet.
