What is Web 2.0? Web 2.0 is the term given to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that is focused on the ability for people to collaborate and share information online. Web 2.0 basically refers to the transition from static HTML Web pages to a more dynamic Web that is more organized and is based on serving Web applications to users. Other improved functionality of Web 2.0 includes open communication with an emphasis on Web-based communities of users, and more open sharing of information. (from Webopedia Wide WebHTMLWeb pagesserving Web applications Blogs (Web Logs) Social Networking Sites (i.e. Facebook, MySpace) Wikis Some Web 2.0 technologies:

Where to go…with Web 2.0? Should library create new Web 2.0 resources or reformat existing, static html pages? What technologies would best suit the library and its users What didnt work for us – BLOGS What may work for us – a Wiki

Why a Wiki? Collaborative Increased input More scrutiny Increased visibility Hot tech factor

What is a Wiki? A wiki is a website that allows visitors to add, remove, edit and change content, typically without the need for registration. It also allows for linking among any number of pages.
