What is Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 "Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform." (Tim O'Reilly)

In English please!

Web 2.0 is the 'next generation internet' that is already upon us. Chances are, you thought that a web site is where you sell products or your services. Wrong, its much more than that, that's where web 2.0 comes into play. Web 2.0 uses existing technology to provide new services for your web site.
