Simplicity Will Win in Web 2.0 During Web 1.0 design and content were dictated, now in Web 2.0 new applications let users combine data and functionality from a variety of sources into a custom environment blurring the line between software and the Internet using an architecture of participation. Surveying the evolution, I revisited some of my posts from last year

• TrendSpotting - New Technologies First in Consumer Markets
• Webtrends - Spotlight on Interaction and Participation
• Ubiquitous Broadband Leads the Way

and wondered if they were still actual. In deed, they are. These new Web 2.0 technologies capture the enterprises now to foster online collaboration and to create an excellent interactive user experience.

How to participate in social interaction? Well, one can create a Flickr.com account and upload images, a YouTube.com account and upload videos, write a Wikipedia article, create a blog at Blogger.com, subscribe to other's Site Feeds, promote your own Site Feeds at FeedBurner.com, use the Internet phone service Skype.com or communicate and explore the world in 3D with Google Earth, SketchUp, a 3D modeling software, and 3D warehouse.

Simplicity will win leading to adoption, scale and thus to a competitive advantage for both, demand and supply.
