More people make it betterMore people make it better

• The more people that get involved the better it gets


Web 2.0Web 2.0

• New way of working and communicating which takes the benefits of the internet onto a different / higher level

• Creative and collaborative• Users add value • Technology that allows people to achieve more

by working together than they can alone

But …• Some of the language is a barrier – the geekiness

needs stripping out – and we need tourist phrasebooks not Web 2.0 to English dictionaries


Web 2.0Web 2.0

• What is it?The future!• Benefits?- The power lies with everyone not just one person to edit or change

a medium. - You don’t need to be an expert in Dreamweaver!• Disadvantages?- Clients don’t understand that you have to sacrifice some functionality for easy access – eg design may be lost over

accessibility• TCC use?Improving internal communication especially with people working

remotelyCollaborative work spaces with clients (eg project specific or

external wiki)

• Are there any other elements to web 2.0 that we are missing?

• Are we making the most of the elements either separately or together?


Web 2.0 Web 2.0

So where do the geeks think it is going?


Web 2.0 - Conference -1 Web 2.0 - Conference -1 • Wiki's are better than email for collaboration• Delete all messages that are not sent direct• Reduces costs of marketing for small business• Free content and knowledge management• Easier for small business to compete

internationally• Improve searchability of wikis• Facebook contacts can be cheaper than direct

mail• Understand who is on the blogroll of a journalist


Web 2.0 - Conference -2 Web 2.0 - Conference -2 • Online videos are very good at spreading bad news

• The first 10 seconds of an online video are the most important

• Tagging means difficult to control your visual image

• The new “first impression” is your digital identity

• Measure success by business outcome not volume

• Online polls should be immediate and not moderated by time

• Develop rewards (points) to encourage usage of social networks



• Is there anything else you want to know about the conference?

• Is blogging a conference you are at the best way to report back?

• Should more people go for half day sessions to conferences like these so we have more collaborative report back?
