Web 2.0

In this blog I am going to talk about web 2.0. I am going to explore the positives and negatives of web 2.0 and also she what it does.

Some examples of web 2.0 websites are social networks, blogs, web apps and sites where you can share video's.

Some of the pro's of web 2.0 are that it allows users on social network sites to interact with eachother and see what people are saying. Another positive of web 2 is the possibility of learning through it as a student or even when you have finished education still learning as an adult. Another positive is that it cost very little if not free to use them so you won't be breaking the bank to talk to friends like many do having an expensive mobile phone.

Some of the cons of web 2 are that information about a person can be accessed by pretty much everyone on the web and some uses write too much information about themselves which leaves anyone who wants to know things eg. where they live, how old they are and relationship status open to them which could end up being very dangerous.

On the whole I think web 2.0 is a very good thing to have available to us but we should not abuse it and go and put too much information about ourselves on it.
