Web 2.0 sites are social and interactive. Not only do they make user feedback and user submitted content possible, they require it. These sites are providing the technology of ’social software’. Connecting the activity of social interaction in a tight and global network.

Six Tips for Learning More about Web 2.0
One thing that I’ve been discovering about all the various Web 2.0 techniques is that marketers need to always be in learning mode. This is one of the things I love about publishing websites and affiliate marketing – it never gets stale and there’s always something new on the horizon.
What’s the Big Deal about Web 2.0?
Web 2.0 sites are the opposite – they talk about the User (what we call “audience”) and much of the content is supplied by the Users themselves – not by the station. The website is more about the town than about the station – and that’s the rub.
