Definition of Web 2.0
“While there is much debate-mostly within tech circles-there are a few things most pundits agree on. Web 2.0 companies are interactive. They invite consumer-generated comments and content, unlike Web 1.0 companies, which publish mostly read-only content.” Ad Age Digital
(PRWEB) July 13, 2006 -- User generated content is generally thought of as a video on YouTube or photos on Flicker or a MySpace personal page. But there is even more valuable user generated content on the Internet, presented by the new generation of Web 2.0 websites, if you know where to look.
For example there are over 30,000 autos for sale on eBay and each listing is generated by an individual user. These listings are continuously updated as vehicles are sold and new listings are added. Thus, the content is automatically self generating and renewing so it is always fresh and up to date. This makes eBay one of the largest user generated business content websites in existence.
eBay is now the worlds largest seller of vehicles with a vehicle sold every minute. According to eBay's official figures, as of March 2006, the site had 193 million registered users worldwide. This registered user base may be larger than the adult population of the USA and there are millions more people world wide who browse eBay every day who are not yet registered buyers or sellers.
