It is a concept Keith. Unless you happened to be a super geek like moi you really don't need to know. CW Like many important concepts, Web 2.0 doesn't have a hard boundary, but rather, a gravitational core. You can visualize Web 2.0 as a set of principles and practices that tie together a veritable solar system of sites that demonstrate some or all of those principles, at a varying distance from that core.

If my responses were any "stronger" I would likely be bounced out of here on my <very nice> butt. Since the whole concept of Web 2.0 has passed you by, I will give it one more try - Cable news networks (and possibly others) want to interact with their audience in REAL TIME. How can they direct their audience to the area on the web where they wish to interact with their audience without mentioning TWITTER or Facebook in some cases? Since you suggested that I "twittered" Rush, I will tell you that over nine years ago I moderated (I mean moderated and not what passes for "moderating" on this board) a very active political Onelist (became E-Groups and then Yahoogroups) and Rush was a member. Alan Colmes was also a member and I will tell you, Alan Colmes is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He is wrong about just about everything but he is a very nice person. LOL Those were the good old days before Web 2.0 and all this silly "tweeting".

Your stupidity is cumulative (over the years). You obviously Twittered Rush to ask him if I was intelligent or not. Your weak responses don't surprise me. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
