Web 2.0 version v54

While I was presenting my Web 2.0 seminar in Rome this week, I had a chance to review and edit the V53 Web 2.0 materials that I recently uploaded — as well as adding some new material based on the June 9, 2008 Apple presentation about its new iPhone3g. The result is a new V54 [...]

Web 2.0, version 53

During the past week, I’ve had a chance to review and edit the V52 Web 2.0 materials that I recently published. The result is a new V53 version, which you can download as a PDF file by clicking here or on the picture below, or which you can view/download by visiting my Slideshare page. The [...]

Web 2.0 v52 – in PDF and Powerpoint format

It’s been a long, long time since I’ve updated my Web 2.0 materials; but I’m presenting a two-day Web 2.0 seminar in Rome next week, so I thought it was time to bring things up to date. I’ve actually been keeping a list of newsworthy items for just this purpose; and I’ve listed below the [...]

Future of Web 2.0

I’m giving a short presentation on the “future of Web 2.0″ at a CIO roundtable session in Chicago on May 12th. You can download the 14.2MB PDF version of the presentation:

We Think

Here’s an intriguing and provocative view of what “Web 2.0″ is all about…

The Awesomeness of Twitter

It occurred to me, sometime this afternoon, that it would be really cool if I could show a live, real-time display of incoming Twitter messages during some presentations that I’m going to be giving about Web 2.0 technologies in Moscow and Rome this spring. I suspect that some of this would be so new, for [...]

A United Nations seat for MySpace?

My old-fashioned, dead-tree version of the February 2008 issue IEEE Computer arrived this afternoon and I glanced at the cover to see what it was all about. The theme of the issue is “The Pervasive Web,” and I noticed that one of the highlighted articles was “Social Networking“, by Alfred C. Weaver and Benjamin B. [...]

Twitter vs. Dopplr: different networks, different purposes

I noticed a curious statistic today: my Twitter network is almost three times larger than my Dopplr network. Inquiring minds want to know: how could that be? Let’s ignore a couple of perfectly reasonable, but uninteresting, possible explanations. Maybe the “sample size” of my networks is so small that any difference between the two is [...]

Web 2.0, version 51

I’ve been slowly accumulating new Web 2.0 material during the past month, and it’s time for an update. As usual, you can access the presentation in a variety of formats, although I haven’t yet had time to upload the “ugly Betty” version to Google Apps. For now, you can view it, and/or download it, from [...]

Kina Grannis’ “Gotta Digg”

This has nothing to do with Christmas, or any other serious topic. But I was alerted to its existence by a fellow Twitterer, and it brought a smile to my face. If things are getting a little too serious in your world, pause for a moment and listen to Kina Grannis tell you all about [...]
