Red Herring: Why Web 2.0 Isn't Dead Yet (redherring.com)

The Web2.0 designation will probably die soon, but the next-generation of the web is here to stay.

This is not a bubble of web products cropping up to ride the acquisition-hype-train (though many are). With the "Web1.0", companies were being formed without solid goals and ways of monetization. The web has expanded so much since then that there is a market for all these novel ideas. If the web community deems a product or service worthless, than those ideas alone would sink and allow the best to stay afloat.

There's no bubble to burst this time, folks. New approach, new media, new web. I'm excited.


That was an interesting interview. You sat down with the guy and only asked THREE questions? I can overhear a better conversation than that on the train.
