Post BurningMan, Danah glocalizes this 2.0 thang - What u think Albs' ? (big gulping it) : "Buzzwords associated with Web2.0 include: remix, tagging, hackability, social networks, open APIs, microcontent, personalization. People discuss how the web is moving from a read-only system to a read/write system and they focus on technologies like GreaseMonkey, Ajax, RSS/Atom, Ruby on Rails. Of course, others talk about the paradoxical relationship between openness and control. The reality is that when people talk about Web2.0, they're talking about a political affiliation with The Next Cool Thing, even if no one has a clue what it is yet..... I will say, it's an interesting time to be in the Valley. There's so much potential and i really want to see Web2.0 go as far as possible in supporting a meaningfully distributed glocalized society."
