Answer to Question 1

Web 2.0 has the ability to tap into the collective intelligence of users. The more users contribute, the more popular and valuable a Web 2.0 site becomes.
Data is made available in new or never-intended ways. Web 2.0 data can be remixed or mashed up, often through Web service interfaces, much the way a dance-club DJ mixes music.
Web 2.0 relies on user-generated and user-controlled content and data.
Lightweight programming techniques and tools let nearly anyone act as a Web site developer.
The virtual elimination of software-upgrade cycles makes everything a perpetual beta or work-in-progress and allows rapid prototyping, using the Web as an application development platform.
Users can access applications entirely through a browser.
An architecture of participation and digital democracy encourages users to add value to the application as they use it.
A major emphasis is on social networks and computing.
There is strong support for information sharing and collaboration.
Web 2.0 fosters rapid and continuous creation of new business models.
