“While Web 2.0 is a bit of a technical buzzword, as it’s underlying delivery technologies are no different than whatever you’d want to call what existed before, to me it represents a conceptual shift in thinking about network-based information. As pieces like texturisr demonstrate, the semantic web really takes shape when we stop thinking about the network as a broadcast medium and instead think of it as a medium for user-guided information interchange. Collaboration, communication, remixability…these are the operative words which describe our Web 2.0 interactions. These interactions are a sort of meta-level complement to current information infrastructure, and they have the potential to be equally comfortable at home, in public space or a gallery.”
