Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is mixing global with the local. It's a social thing that anyone can do. Web 2.0 is about searching and accessing web content. There is lots of different examples of web 2.0, such as youtube, blogging, flickr and wikipedia. They are all types of communication.
Wiki is a website that lets you edit to many interlinked web pages. Blogs and wikis are similar in ways of editing online. Although with blogs you cannot edit other peoples blogs, with wiki you can edit to mostly any website eg. wikipedia.
Wikipedia is editable to anyone meaning anyone can edit to wikipedia. With somethings that you search on wikipedia may not always be true as it can be edited with false information. I think that wikipedia should not always be trusted but it does give good information if it is not false.
I think that flickr is useful for people who have family or friends overseas, because you can share photos online and communticate with others. With your photos flickr lets you edit them online.
Delicious is a online bookmarking service.
