Web 2.0 and spacejam.

Web 2.0 is the expression used for new wave websites. What makes a website 2.0, is whether it has the capability to allow it users to customize, share, post, talk and so on with other users. Lets take for example Facebook. Facebook is a great example of 2.0 because it allows you to pretty much do what you like with it, apart from meddle around with the inner workings of the code, that would be insane. Instead, Facebook will literally let you where your heart on your sleeve. Or heart on your Facebook page.. The point is that it allows you to do more things than just look at the content, you are the content. web 1.0 didn't allow any of this. You would go to a website, ingest the information that was there, and then leave. A really strange example of all of this is to first look at any recent 2.0 website, such as here, blogger. Now take a look at the Spacejam movie website. Its like traveling back in time to when the web was new. Because it was. It was web 1.0.  Click here to see the Spacejam website.. Its freaky.
