As I wrote last month, I’m working with a team of folks to redesign the Web 2 Points of Control map along the lines of this year’s theme: “The Data Frame.” In the past few weeks I’ve been talking to scores of interesting people, including CEOs of data-driven start ups (TrialPay and Corda, for example), academics in the public dataspace, policy folks, and VCs. Along the way I’ve solidified my thinking about how best to visualize the “data layer” we’ll be adding to the map, and I wanted to bounce it off all of you.

So here, in my best narrative voice, is what I’m thinking. First, of course, some data. On the left hand side are eight major players in the Internet Economy, along with two categories of players who are critical, but who I’ve lumped together – payment players such as Visa, Amex, and Mastercard, and carriers or ISP players such as Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon. As you know, the map is a metaphor, showing key territories as “points of control.” But how?

Why the Social Media Revolution Is About to Get a Little Less Awesome - Derek Thompson. Social media is about to get much more annoying, and it's all Facebook's fault (kinda.) Reuters In the wake of Facebook's disappointing IPO, Paul Graham, the cofounder of the country's most famous and successful tech incubator, Y Combinator, sent an email to his portfolio companies predicting a shift in the way venture capitalists evaluated start-up potential. Before the public offering, companies that build a large audience were not under much pressure to build a revenue model to match.

But "the bad performance of the Facebook IPO will hurt the funding market for earlier stage startups," he wrote, "possibly a lot, if it becomes a vicious circle. " Facebook's bad IPO wasn't an aberrational day. Very little about Facebook, the company, technically changed. But Facebook, as a symbol of the attention economy, had already changed dramatically. And the victory of their argument is having repercussions across the industry. Look at your smart phone or your tablet. Social web. The social web is a set of social relations that link people through the World Wide Web.[1] The Social web encompasses how websites and software are designed and developed in order to support and foster social interaction.[2]:5 These online social interactions form the basis of much online activity including online shopping,[3] education, gaming and social networking websites.

The social aspect of Web 2.0 communication has been to facilitate interaction between people with similar tastes.[4] These tastes vary depending on who the target audience is, and what they are looking for. For individuals working in the public relation department, the job is consistently changing and the impact is coming from the social web.[5] The influence, held by the social network is large and ever changing.

Cargo. Web 2.0: le mythe des contenus générés par… les professionnels. Trait caractéristique des temps de révolution mentale: les opinions les moins fondées y prennent parfois l’apparence et la force de la lucidité. C’est en tout cas de lucidité que se parent les thèses anti web 2.0 qui fleurissent en ce moment sur l’internet, et pour lesquelles la participation des utilisateurs à la création de contenu est un « mythe » ou une « illusion ». Voir Scott Karp pour l’argument détaillé, Nicolas Kayser-Brill pour une réponse partielle, Philippe Gammaire pour un débat acharné, Julien Jacob et Benoit Raphael pour plus de contexte sur le sujet. Nos « anti-amateurs » partent d’un constat simple: des kilomètres de pages Myspace ne supportent pas la comparaison avec les lignes d’un bon écrivain ou les portées d’un bon musicien.

C’est le contenu généré par les professionnels qui est un mythe. Ceux qui rependent le mythe du professionnalisme voient une aristocratie de créateurs offrant un bien rare et unique à des peuples de spectateurs égarés. What Is Web 2.0. By Tim O'Reilly 09/30/2005 Oct. 2009: Tim O'Reilly and John Battelle answer the question of "What's next for Web 2.0? " in Web Squared: Web 2.0 Five Years On. The bursting of the dot-com bubble in the fall of 2001 marked a turning point for the web.

Many people concluded that the web was overhyped, when in fact bubbles and consequent shakeouts appear to be a common feature of all technological revolutions. Shakeouts typically mark the point at which an ascendant technology is ready to take its place at center stage. The concept of "Web 2.0" began with a conference brainstorming session between O'Reilly and MediaLive International.

In the year and a half since, the term "Web 2.0" has clearly taken hold, with more than 9.5 million citations in Google. This article is an attempt to clarify just what we mean by Web 2.0. In our initial brainstorming, we formulated our sense of Web 2.0 by example: The list went on and on. 1. Netscape vs. Feedmyapp - Your Daily Web 2.0 Sites Dose.

(This was a quick review so I may have missed things – let me know if so.) If you compare this with the review of the companies in probably the most famous overview of Web 2.0 logos and companies below, my list seems to have been quite a lot more successful, I suppose since I was selecting these as representing a particular aspect of value creation rather than being randomly selected. [UPDATE:] I’ve just worked out that this means 32.7% of the companies in our list have been acquired in the last two years, which is pretty significant turnover.

Social-media-map.pdf (Objet application/pdf) Category:Social media. Geert Lovink - Networks Without a Cause: A Critique of Social Media. Description With the vast majority of Facebook users caught in a frenzy of ‘friending’, ‘liking’ and ‘commenting’, at what point do we pause to grasp the consequences of our info-saturated lives? What compels us to engage so diligently with social networking systems? Networks Without a Cause examines our collective obsession with identity and self-management coupled with the fragmentation and information overload endemic to contemporary online culture. With a dearth of theory on the social and cultural ramifications of hugely popular online services, Lovink provides a path-breaking critical analysis of our over-hyped, networked world with case studies on search engines, online video, blogging, digital radio, media activism and the Wikileaks saga.
