What Is Web 2.0?



Web 2.0 resources are websites and web applications which are run in the browser, which allow users to collaborate on projects using separate computers by sharing the creation and editing of a product on a common account. Web 2.0 is about the creation of new content in a collaboration, rather that the Web 1.0 function of only retrieving information in a static way.
