#4 Web 2.0

Hmmm ...
... interactive, transparent, inclusive, open, communicative and a tad more user-friendly than I would have expected. I can't even imagine being able to 'create' and navigate (albeit even as hesitatingly as I am doing at the moment) in any previous, earlier computer experiences. It certainly seems to be an efficient way to access a great deal of information/views on a range of topics ... and in a variety of formats.

However, I am left wondering whether the authenticity/validity/honesty of the material varies all that much from the previous formats of publication/lectures etc - human nature being what it is. Also, the time spent surfing/tasting is quite significant ... although it is definitely a more engaging use of time.

I shall continue to 'read'... and ponder.
