Here is what my company has defined as web 2.0:
1: User Generated Content

Web 3.0: Please enter your credit card. - cypher35, on 10/12/2007, -5/+4no *****... that description doesn't make a whole lot of sense
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Sorry, folks, but the only people who can't see a difference between then and now are the ones who were creating crap pages on Geocities and today create crap profiles on MySpace. Technology has advanced as far ahead of 1996 as 1996 did over the days of the Atari console.
But of course, we have the generation for whom all time froze the day they got their shiny new AOL 9-million-hours-free disk. Yes, if you logged on to Yahoo the first day on your Windows 95 box and haven't gone anywhere else since because you're scared you might break something if you type in the big white box at the top of your web browser again, then of course all this talk of progress is silly nonsense to you.
I've taken to calling it Web 2.0 because people get lost when I type "today's modern Internet". - spiderfish, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Just lost 30 seconds of my life... thanks.
