Web 2.0 is here in a big way - check out the list of sites!

Everyone is talking about Web 2.0 this year.

What is it? What is Web 2.0.

Nothing hammers a point home like a few - or a lot of really good examples.

Somebody has put together a long list of the best Web 2.0 websites. The name of each one listed is a hyperlink to the site.

Great idea!

There is lots more information on the website too - about CSS tools, Ajax tools, and so forth.


Software Development in the Real World: Best of the Best Web 2.0 Web Sites: New and improved sites that make the web their platform, provide users a way of interacting with each other, and organize and categorize their content are perfect examples of Web 2.0.

If anything says, Modern Web - it is Web 2.0 technology and techniques: rating, tagging, AJAX, and so forth.

Now that IE7 and Firefox 7 are out, people can be enjoying the Modern Web like never before.

As a very recent example of how Web 2.0 is catching on, Apple's pay subscription website .Mac has just rolled out an AJAX-based web mail client. I glanced at the source, and it uses Scriptaculous for its fancy AJAX/DHTML features.

This web-based web mail client looks just like Apple's Mail.app desktop GUI client application. The similarity is uncanny!
