It helped me to make another step in understanding and being able to explain this concept that has been termed “Web 2.0.” Web 2.0 is the application of the reality that most designers and companies have been slow to embrace. The Web is about the user or the reader. It needs to be designed for users and empower him or her to achieve a specific goal or dream with greater ease than has been true in the past. This article was a good compliment to another article that I recently blogged about, Tech.Memeorandum’s Filtering Illustrates Web 2.0’s Most Important Skill.
