Being Social
Web2.0 Synopsis
This page is to attempt to list all the social networks I’ve chosen to be a part of. Social networks are heavily related to the Web2.0 movement, which is simply the current evolution of the web. When the web first started it was more structured for a business-to-client or business-to-business focus. Web sites would provide information, users of that site would pull information and it was not very interactive. As the web matured left-wing folks started created web sites that became more and more community based, more interactive with their users. Thus the code behind the sites need to be used AS INTENDED. Now more and more automated systems can be created and the birth of social web sites swept our nation (or something like that).
