“The idea is that the new web, ‘Web 2.0’, is introducing the concept of social networks to the internet as opposed to the ‘old’ web which was just corporate marketing. Of course this is ridiculous. If the internet has ever had a single defining feature, it is its social nature. The internet was originally nothing but interpersonal communication. Anyone remember bulletin boards, Usenet?”
