Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Traditional business messages are scripted by designated communicators, approved by someone in authority, distributed through selected channels, and delivered without modification to a passive audience. In the 2.0 approach, customers and other stakeholders are active participants who influence or take control of conversations.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) No company, no matter how enthusiastically it embraces Web 2.0, is going to be run by a social club. Instead, a hybrid approach is emerging in which some communications follow the traditional approach, while others follow the 2.0 approach. Business 2.0 is about both approaches to communication. Business 2.0 is not about being European or from any specific place.
