\"\"<\/a>It\u2019s probably long past time to write some definitions.\u00a0 In fact, I\u2019ve done this before, probably every time I write a post about Web 2.0. A few years ago, I said that Web 2.0 would not be on the radar screens of HR for a couple of years, and sure enough, the last couple of years has seen a huge rise in interest about Web 2.0 and I think that the implementations are starting to grow at a fairly rapid pace.\u00a0 We should see the first true wave (not a pre-wave) of Web 2.0 implementations starting to go live just about now.<\/p>\n

But that still begs the question that I think lots of HR people grapple with:\u00a0 What is Web 2.0?\u00a0 Basically, the answer is simple and falls into 4 simple categories:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Web 2.0 helps us connect with each other:\u00a0 This is the easiest to define since most of us who are interested in Web 2.0 are already on facebook, linked in or twitter.\u00a0 We already have social networks we participate in on-line, and enterprise Web 2.0 has the same technologies behind the firewall.<\/li>\n
  2. Web 2.0 helps us deliver content:\u00a0 Anyone who is reading this blog is familiar with this.\u00a0 Web 2.0 helps us publish our content on blogs, wikis and other social media tools.<\/li>\n
  3. Web 2.0 helps us receive content:\u00a0 I have debated whether RSS feeds are dead (this blog has not had any growth in the RSS feed for a couple years I think), but wither it\u2019s RSS, your twitter feed, or your daily updates when you log into facebook telling you what all your friends are up to, Web 2.0 collects information from many people or many sources and aggregates it all for you in one place.<\/li>\n
  4. Web 2.0 helps us organize content:\u00a0 The last is possibly the hardest to see, but included in Web 2.0 technologies are things like tagging.\u00a0 Tagging is a technology that helps us create dynamic \u201ccatalogs\u201d of user based content and user based structures that constantly change based on the dynamic flow of content and ideas through the web.\u00a0 Unlike “hard-coded catalogs like \u201cWindows Explorer\u201d on your PC, Web 2.0 tags will continually evolve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Those are my 4 easy steps to understanding Web 2.0.\u00a0 Anyone think I missed anything?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
