WEB 2.0=PARTICIPATORY WEB

Web 2.0, refers to a perceived second generation of Web-based communities and hosted services — such as social-networking sites, wikis and folksonomies — which aim to ***facilitate collaboration and sharing*** between users.

The term became popular following the first O'Reilly Media Web 2.0 conference in 2004. Although the term suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an update to any technical specifications, but to ***changes in the ways software developers and end-users use the Web***

SOCIAL NETWORKING (1)

A social network service focuses on the building and verifying of online social networks for communities of people who share interests and activities, or who are interested in exploring the interests and activities of others, and which necessitates the use of software.

SOCIAL NETWORKING (2)

Most social network services are primarily Web-based and provide a collection of various ways for users to interact, such as chat, messaging, email, video, voice chat, file sharing, blogging, discussion groups, … [etc.]
