Often recognized as the second generation of the World Wide Web, WEB2.0 can broadly be defined as an enhanced version of the World Wide Web that aims to bring alive web activities such as weblogs (blogs), wikis, social bookmarking, podcasts, RSS feeds, social software, web Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and online web services.

A definite upgrade on the plain ‘information dispensing’ nature of the World Wide Web, WEB2.0 allows users to create and distribute content with the ability to share, edit and re-use online. It is no wonder then that the implications of its popularity have far reaching economic consequences. By allowing the user to do more online, WEB2.0 has received online transactions ranging from paid downloads to virtual stores.

As part of a trend that has already seen significant growth in the number of jobs in the last few years alone, the future for software professionals that can bring alive the internet with the wonders of WEB2.0 promises to be bright and full of opportunities.
