I thought that the Web 2.0 revolution brought about a huge wave of user-generated content. A Web 2.0 app doesn't necessarily have to create content or aggregate content. It just needs to make it easy for users to create the content and share it with their friends.
It seems like there are a lot of gaps in these categories.
And I still hate the buzzword "Web 2.0".
- briancray 17y agoGood point about user-generated content, and I'd say that this still fits under content aggregators because the content sharing is usually topic-specific and driven by information. The exception to this rule are things like Facebook and Twitter where there is peer-to-peer communication only. It's true that Web 2.0 as a buzzword can get tiring, but can we agree that there is a shift to conversational media vs. one-way media? There has to be some name to identify that shift, and Web 2.0 seems to be the word of choice for now.
