Quoted: Twelve months have passed since we introduced the first Next Net 25 - our picks for the Web 2.0 wannabes most likely to break out of the pack. The moment seemed propitious: Hardware was cheap, broadband was ubiquitous, software was open-source, and venture capitalists were once again flooding Silicon Valley with ready cash.

Aww if Web 2.0 conference goers are cynical maybe there's smoke...
Quoted: If you were looking to learn something new, this week’s Web 2.0 Summit1 was not the place to be. However, if you were planning to catch up, make contacts and swap business cards, then the Palace Hotel’s grandiose hallways were where all the action was. It was rare to chat up anyone at Web 2.0 who had anything positive to say about the official content or news. The consensus seemed to be same old, same old; the reason to break out the checkbook and skip out on real work was to mingle.

This is a pretty in-depth article about how Web 2.0 will or could impact businesses.
Quoted: For all its appeal to the young and the wired, Web 2.0 may end up making its greatest impact in business. And that could usher in more changes in corporations, already in the throes of such tech-driven transformations as globalization and outsourcing. Indeed, what some are calling Enterprise 2.0 could flatten a raft of organizational boundaries -- between managers and employees and between the company and its partners and customers. Says Don Tapscott, CEO of the Toronto tech think tank New Paradigm and co-author of The Naked Corporation: "It's the biggest change in the organization of the corporation in a century."
Quoted: Nonetheless, the notions behind Web 2.0 clearly hold great potential for businesses -- and peril for those that ignore them. Potentially, these Web 2.0 services could help solve some vexing problems for corporations that current software and online services have yet to tackle.

The killer app for any web version is something that satisfies every level on the Maslow hierarchy. Yeah, if you make something like that, you can pretty much tell everyone to ...
Quoted: Let's compile two lists -- Web 2.0 Winners and Web 2.0 Stinkers.
Quoted: What are the web apps you can't live without? And what are the services that have absolutely no use to you or anyone you know?
Quoted: I'm hoping that this experiment will answer two nagging questions. The first involves identifying our over-arching needs on the web -- What tasks do we use web services for? What's the Web 2.0 killer app? Is it news aggregation? Photo sharing? Dating?

Quoted: Web 2.0, everyone's favourite new tech buzzword... What the hell is it?"
Quoted: At the moment Web 2.0 means different things to different people - to some it's about people - it's a place to collaborate and participate, to share digital assets, from blogs to podcasts to tags; to others it's about technology - Ajax, APIs and mashups. The fact is that to create a Web 2.0 website, you have to embrace both meanings. Technology without participation is not in the spirit of the next generation web.

I wanna know what distinguishes 1.0 Real Estate sites from 2.0 sites
quoted: * Zillow.com (at #33) sits on top of the rest of the Real Estate 2.0 crowd (hardly a surprise there)
* The surprising ommission of Trulia.com (perhaps due to Ron’s Propsmart affiliation?)
* The not-so-surprising ommission of Redfin.com (which looks less and less like a tech play and more like a discount broker everyday)
