“Web 1.0 was all about connecting people. It was an interactive space, and I think Web 2.0 is of course a piece of jargon, nobody even knows what it means. If Web 2.0 for you is blogs and wikis, then that is people to people. But that was what the Web was supposed to be all along. And in fact, you know, this 'Web 2.0,' it means using the standards which have been produced by all these people working on Web 1.0." podcast interview for IBM, September 2006 Tim Berners-Lee

Trust Alex Halavais, an assistant professor of communication at the University at Buffalo and an active blogger, decided to put Wikipedia to the test—by inserting 13 errors into various entries. One error asserted that abolitionist Frederick Douglass had once lived in Syracuse, and another "fooled with the Periodic Table," says Halavais. Within two and a half hours, site visitors had corrected all the errors. http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com/article/CA475534.html
