Why?
The phrase Web 2.0 is being increasingly used, but often with little understanding of what it means. Web 2.0 offers genuine interactivity. It’s a two-way process that enables us to build communities, engage in dialogue and enrich experiences. This can include websites, YouTube, MySpace, Second Life, Facebook, mobile technologies among many others. This is not about grafting a token ‘digital’ strand to our activity, it's about changing the way we do things, as our audiences are. The good news is it doesn't need to be difficult, or expensive.
