Web 2.0 Expo Wrapup

readwriteweb.com — "So what was different about this web 2.0 conference? It was the 3rd Web 2.0 Conference...The Web 2.0 Expo was the biggest of all 3, both in terms of the venue and the number of people attending - estimates ranged from 10-16k. It also had more of a developer focus, although there were plenty of business people too."

    none here, WTF?
  • theeXguy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Looks nice, but I think there's too many summits, expos and retreats. The organizers should regroup and hold less of these event, but make them bigger.

  • kiteracer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Perhaps Web 2.0 is but a hackneyed expression that epitomizes too many novel, colorful ideas. The flashiness wears thin after a while and the public is growing apathetic. It's time to migrate into 2.0.1 territory.
  • stockjones, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Perhaps people are getting tired of all the loaded words and terminology crap too liberally spewed out in the tech world. Web 2.0 is one of them it has a myriad of meanings for different people.

  • gateway, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I was at the conference, and I have to say I was pretty impressed with the direction Adobe is going with the Apollo Project. This helps web developers create more web apps but with a pc/mac menu system and allows for more functionality than what the browser allows developers to do. Ebay has a beta of this program now that you can download and install as a desktop app. The Keynote was pretty good as well.
