What is the Web 2.0?

I have been researching to find some ways to effectively share what the Web 2.0 is.

I browsed through some YouTube videos to see what I might find interesting.

These were two separate actions, but one proved to be the answer for the other.

I have collected a half-dozen videos from YouTube that have been posted in the past year… and which provide some interesting insights into Web 2.0. Some of them are designed for educators; some, for business. Together these videos can help us understand the Web 2.0 better.

Note: If you choose to show any of these to students, please review the videos first to be sure all the language used is appropriate.
