In his "What Is Web 2.0: Design Patterns and Business Models for the Next
Generation of Software," O'Reilly identifies several key features of what he
means by Web 2.0. Software developers need to see "the Web as Platform." New
applications need to be developed that do not require the end user to install
software on their work or home computers -- rather these new applications will
be available on the Web accessible through a browser interface. The Web
application can be provided as a service or made available on a subscription
basis. The service can be used by anyone and accessed by anyone as long as they
have access to the Net. Web 2.0 services are based on an "architecture of
participation" in which the user of the service adds value to the service. The
"service acts primarily as an intelligent broker, connecting the edges to each
other and harnessing the power of the users themselves." (n9) -

Information behaviour that keeps found things found
It is clear from the data collected by the KFTF study that people continue to
be challenged by the their own limitations and the limitations of the tools they
use for building, managing and using a personal information collection. Fifty
years ago Vannevar Bush in the concluding paragraphs of As we may think
reinforced this concern with the comment that:
...civilization can only continue with the great experiment of its
continued development and find fulfillment and joy... if [we]... can reacquire
the privilege of forgetting the manifold things... [we do]... not need to have
immediately at hand, with some assurance that [we] can find them again if they
prove important'. (Bush, 1945: 8)
Half a century after Bush penned these words, we are still (as individuals
and members of social and professional groups) confronting the challenges of our
overloaded and busy information-based lives with fragmented attention, imperfect
memory, and limited information skills and literacies. Effective information
seeking and use continues to rest fundamentally with the individual and with his
or her ability to create, manage and use a personal information collection.
Further research by scientists who study human information behaviour is key to
resolving these challenges. -
