EXAM QUESTIONConsider two media areas - what difference has Web 2.0 made to their production and comsumption?Has everything really changed in both cases - as some people would suggest?

Web 2.0Media in the on-line age

Web 2.0A Web 2.0 site allows users to interact and collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators (prosumers) of user-generated content in a virtual community, in contrast to websites where users (consumers) are limited to the passive viewing of content that was created for them.

Media in the on-line age

Web 2.0Although the term suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an update to any technical specification, but rather to cumulative changes in the ways software developers and end-users use the Web.

Media in the on-line age

Web 2.0Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor ofthe web has said that he alwaysintended the web to be used in this way so has dismissed the termas “jargon”.
