Greetings all,
This 5-minute video was recently posted on YouTube, by Michael Wesch at Kansas State University, and provides a really cool introduction to Web 2.0.

In the run up to the Vancouver abstract deadline I talked with a number of colleagues about Web 2.0 research. Although we seemed to have an implicit agreement on the definition of Web 2.0, based on O'Reilly's technology / functionality / commercial oriented definition, it appears that a 'formal' definition is still very much in progress.
From a research definition perspective, I'm looking forward to the AoIR-8 presentations in Vancouver, where a Web 2.0 definition will surely expand and evolve.
From a pedagogical perspective, I will likely use Wesch's video as an introduction into Web 2.0 discussion, and then perhaps supplement it with the O'Reilly piece.

I'm interested in how others are defining/teaching Web 2.0. Also, does anyone have a favorite reference for Web 2.0?
Cheers, Clifford
