So..what is Web 2.0?
Everyone understands what Web 2.0 is, but yet, nobody really knows what it exactly is. Does it have any borders as to what we can call web 2.0, is there any particular definition for web 2.0 and if there is, who separates what is and what isn't. Does it differ from people to people, country to country? Does it even matter if what we call as web 2.0?
Here's the definition of web 2.0 straight from the source: O'Reilly Media - told by many to be the first to coin the term web 2.0 in their conference.
Please follow this link to read the exhaustingly detailed definition on Web 2.0 (it's 5 pages). But nobody could ask for a more legitimate information on Web 2.0:

Google Social Search update makes your friends more relevant, difficult to ignore
Google's been talking up its Social Search function for sometime, but up until now your friends' tweets probably haven't made it to the top of your search results -- unless of course you're besties with TMZ, and you've been searching the Miley Cyrus bong salvia rip again. Thankfully, it looks as if that could change with El Goog's latest update to the socially minded search function, which now mixes updates from your contacts' various online accounts, like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, in with the standard search fare -- pulling them up from their previous position at the bottom of your results. Google's also included a photo and annotation to show the origins of relevant links, and given you the ability to manage how you connect your accounts -- either publicly through your profile or privately through your account. The new functions started rolling out yesterday, which means you could be seeing a whole lot more from those contacts you regretted friending in the first place. Isn't social media a wonderful / disastrous thing?
