Web 2.0

What does Web 2.0 mean to me? It suggests that one harness the infinity of E-space into a working tool that addresses the specific needs of the user. A Web 2.0 tool is unique to the user, and performs for an individual. It suggests an interactive window that one designs to pursue a precise extraction of information for the individual.

Technorati

When searching for the library URL, I found either 68, 70, or 73 reactions depending upon which page I was on. As I skipped back to the last page, nothing there but advertising, so I jumped to the next to the last page, ditto. The links stopped at page five but the ads kept going for two more pages. This could be useful as a reverse search tool to backwards link to those linking to a particular page. When tag searching for web 2.0, the were 35,000 hits.

The names for Internet tools tend to not be very descriptive of their function, which ties in very well with the sloppy lingo that is thrown around EVERYWHERE on the Internet. Why not just call it BlogSearcher or something simple?

I am not impressed with the "blog" in general. Okay, there are some good ones, but there is so much crap being generated, it should instead be called a "clog," as in get the plunger! Of course, dear reader, present company excluded on that last statement! YMMV!

Anti.soc.ial

I looked a Del.icio.us and came to the con.clus.ion that it wasn't for me. I am just too introverted to really use it. I already put my bookmarks into folders since way back when. I don't have enough time in the day to look at what other people think is worthwhile. I do believe that if one were to do research into a narrow topic, one may turn up a needle in the haystack with this tool.

Web Feat

Very interesting. This tool turned up some stuff that I had not seen before, but was cool.
