Web 2.0

After watching the youtube video on the web, I think the title desribes the new and improved usability of the web. Originally complicated and hard to view, post, share, and change, the web oversimplifies everything down to a level where now kids can easily do things on the web their parents couldn't even think of doing. This affects the workforce in large part due to the widespread use and understanding of the web and a huge number of people being more web-savvy. People already in the workforce, our parents for example, are finding it tough to adapt to a more web-reliant culture where all the answers to anything and everything are found on the computer. I don't think the web will ever replace the old ways completely, but the world will become based mroe around the web, as it has in the past decade, which will force us to rethink some, but not all things in our lives.
