This paper defines web 2.0 and outlines its key concepts: 1) the web as a platform, 2) harnessing collective intelligence, 3) data is the next Intel inside, 4) end of the software release cycle, 5) lightweight programming models, 6) software above the level of a single device, and 7) rich user experiences.
