18. 18 Web 2.0 Membership at social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace is exploding. In June, 2 out of every 3 people online visited a social networking site. Since January 2004, the number of people visiting or taking part in one of the top online social networks has grown by over 109% (primarily driven by MySpace). Social networking sites are now close to eclipsing traffic to the giants - Google and Yahoo.

30. Web 2.030 Web 2.0  The central principle behind the success of the giants born in the Web 1.0 era who have survived to lead the Web 2.0 era appears to be this, that they have embraced the power of the web to harness collective intelligence :that they have embraced the power of the web to harness collective intelligence :  Yahoo!, Web 1.0 success story, was born as a catalog/directoryof links, an aggregation of the best work of thousands, then millions of web users.  Yahoo!

70. 70 Web 2.0  RSS is a type of web feed.  RSS delivers its information as an XML file called an "RSS feed", "webfeed", "RSS stream", or "RSS channel".  These RSS feeds provide a way for users to passively receive newly released content (such as text, web pages, sound files, or other media); this might be the full content itself or just a link to it, possibly with a summary or other metadata (data describing the content).

71. Web 2.071 Web 2.0  RSS is now being used to push not just notices of new blog entries, but also all kinds of data updates, including stock quotes, weather data, and photo availability.  RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's "Really Simple Syndication" technology, used to push out blog updates.

72. Web 2.072 Web 2.0  An RSS feed is thus a much stronger link than, say a bookmark or a link to a single page  RSS also means that the web browser (My Yahoo!) is not the only means of viewing a web page.  While some RSS aggregators, such as :  Bloglines, are web-based,  others are desktop clients,  Yahoo! Mobile - portable devices allows to subscribe to constantly updated content.

75. 75 Web 2.0  Dynamic websites (i.e., database-backed sites with dynamically generated content) replaced static web pages well over ten years ago.  What's dynamic about the live web are not just the pages, but the links.  A link to a weblog is expected to point to a perennially changing page, with "permalinks" for any individual entry, and notification for each change.

76. Web 2.076 Web 2.0  Tom Coates remarks on the significance of the permalink:  It may seem like a trivial piece of functionality now, but it was effectively the device that turned weblogs from an ease-of-publishing phenomenon into a conversational mess of overlapping communities.  For the first time it became relatively easy to gesture directly at a highly specific post on someone else's site and talk about it.  Discussion emerged. Chat emerged. And - as a result - friendships emerged or became more entrenched.

77. Web 2.077 Web 2.0  The permalink was the first - and most successful - attempt to build bridges between weblogs.  Permalink example.png - #

Hence the "perma" in the name..

79. Web 2.079 Web 2.0  Permalink is made by contracting the phrase "permanent link".  A permalink is a term used in the world of blogging to indicate a URL which points to a specific blog entry.  A permalink is accessible even after the entry has passed from the front page and into the blog archives.

80. Web 2.080 Web 2.0

81. 81 Web 2.0  The permanent URLs created are often simple and human- readable to ease the process of linking to a particular entry and are designed within blogging software to remain unchanged indefinitely so as to help prevent link rot.  The practice is utilized by mainstream news and other types of websites as well, although the term permalink is most common within the blogosphere.  Permalinks are supported in most modern weblogging and content syndication software systems, including Movable Type, LiveJournal, and Blogger

82. Web 2.082 Web 2.0  Not only can people subscribe to each others' sites, and easily link to individual comments on a page, but also, via a mechanism known as trackbacks, they can see when anyone else links to their pages, and can respond, either with reciprocal links, or by adding comments  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0

Web 2.087 Web 2.0  The now hotly contested web mapping arena demonstrates how a failure to understand the importance of owning an application's core data will eventually undercut its competitive position.  MapQuest pioneered the web mapping category  1995, yet when Yahoo!, and then Microsoft, and most recently Google, decided to enter the market, they were easily able to offer a competing application simply by licensing the same data.

88. Web 2.088 Web 2.0  The recent introduction of Google Maps provides a living laboratory for the competition between application vendors and their data suppliers.  Google's lightweight programming model has led to the creation of numerous value-added services in the form of mashups that link Google Maps with other internet-accessible data sources.  Paul Rademacher's housingmaps.com, which combines Google Maps with Craigslist apartment rental and home purchase data to create an interactive housing search tool, is the pre-eminent example of such a mashup. housingmaps.comCraigslisthousingmaps.comCraigslist

89. Web 2.089 Web 2.0  A mashup is a website or Web 2.0 application that uses content from more than one source to create a completely new service.  This is akin to transclusion - In computer science, is the inclusion of part of a document into another document by reference  Content used in mashups is typically sourced from a third party via a public interface or API.

90. Web 2.090 Web 2.0  Other methods of sourcing content for mashups include Web feeds (e.g. RSS or Atom) and JavaScript.  An example is Diggdot.us, combines feeds from the techie-oriented news sources Digg.com,Digg.com, Slashdot.org, andSlashdot.org, and Del.icio.us, reddig.com.Del.icio.us, reddig.com.
