Tim O'Reilly commented "The users add content to the site, and the more the users access the site and add data the better the site becomes."
Tim O'Reilly identified the three competencies which are most relevant to web 2.0 within professional practice and the work place. These are centred on users and creators and the blurring of the line between them. They are:
A) Architecture of participation
Web 2.0 as a tool of networking and communication encourages and enables participation and the ability of people to interact and collaborate, Thereby taking part in something as well as creating it
B) Remix-able data sources and data transformation
Each Web 2.0 application has a base set of methods and rules. Enabling users to be creative and engage with there own communities of those who share the same interests and goatskin an easy and democratic way.
A key aspect of web 2.0 is that surfaces are constantly evolving, and each platform is progressively developed and replaced. Thousands of people may read and interact with each other over a single blog. The users can collaborate, comment, critique, share and remix info and communications.
I am a constant user of web 2.0 as i use twitter, Facebook and youtube but sometimes i am a little conscious of people to reading my posts and status's.
After reading the reader and understanding it better, i hope that i become more motivated to communicate and collaborate, and inspired with new ideas increasing my creativity.
Afi,
ReplyDeleteI really like your writing style. You have a great way of pointing everything out clearly and to he point, I am finding that I have too much to say or that I keep reiterating the same comment. Well done for that.
like most of us, I'm reading that Web 2.0 seems to encompass what we do as professionals. what is even more surprising is that most of us didn't even know what it was before this course however all have engaged in it at some point. I think its a huge sign of where communication is today.
