= = Web 1.0 was about locating information. Web 2.0 is about using websites as application software much as one uses MSWord or PowerPoint or other software on your computer. Web 2.0 sites allow one to read AND write! In addition, most Web 2.0 sites offer the opportunity to share and/or collaborate on the work.

What makes a great Web 2.0 Website? 1. Clear purpose and real utility 2. Create s a community around that purpose 3. Free to use or very affordable (usually tiered pricing with free lowest tier of service.) 4. Easy and fun to join and use 5. Connects to or builds on other Web 2.0 sites 6. Allows anonymous (or pseudonymous) use 7. Contributors own and control their content and identity = = The purpose of this website is to provide a place **to learn** a little more about web tools that can be used to improve and enhance students educational experiences and **to see** examples of how they can be used.
