Web Squared: Web 2.0 Five Years On - by Tim O'Reilly and John Battelle

Web Squared: Web 2.0 Five Years On - by Tim O'Reilly and John Battelle
Five years ago, we launched a conference based on a simple idea, and that idea grew into a movement. The original Web 2.0 Conference (now the Web 2.0 Summit ) was designed to restore confidence in an industry that had lost its way after the dotcom bust. The Web was far from done, we argued. In fact, it was on its way to becoming a robust platform for a culture-changing generation of computer applications and services. In our first program, we asked why some companies survived the dotcom bust, while others had failed so miserably. We also studied a burgeoning group of startups and asked why they were growing so quickly. Chief among our insights was that "the network as platform" means far more than just offering old applications via the network ("software as a service"); it means building applications that literally get better the more people use them, harnessing network effects not only to acquire users, but also to learn from them and build on their contributions.

Data analysis, visualization, and other techniques for seeing patterns in data are going to be an increasingly valuable skillset. Employers take notice. by nicolas Oct 19

3 things I don't like in this article. 1) Sensors are more buzz than short or middle term trends. 2) The real-time is not new and it won't change anything of the web shape. 3) As usual IA seams sweet but is still a sweet dream. by nicolas Oct 19
