Who created Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 wasn't created by just one person. Some people think that the creator might be Tim O'Reilly but Tim O'Reilly was just associated.

What kind of people use Web 2.0?

Many different people use Web 2.0 all the time like children, teens and adults. Children mostly use Web 2.0 for gamins and online games to keep them busy. As most people know teens use Web 2.0 mostly to communicate and collaborate with their society and be up to date and known whats going on around them socially. An example of a way to communicate that teens mostly use is through Facebook or a form of email. Although, teens also use Web 2.0 to find research and information for school work and useful information. Adults, compared to teens and children, use Web 2.0 to get online jobs, find and hire other workers. Web 2.0 makes it easier for them to communicate with their co-workers in and out of their office.

What are the disadvantages of using the elements that Web 2.0 covers?

Too many people exploit the benefits of Web 2.0 without taking their time to educate people about the problems.
No matter how advanced the Internet becomes, it is very important for some things to be kept in a hard copy form. What happens when users begin sharing information that is copyrighted? How will people be paid for the work they do?
One of the key problems with Web 2.0 is dependence. If your connection should go down, how will you access the information that you come to depend on? Because many web services will be offered for free, they won't be secure, and they could easily be targeted by hackers.

Which elements of Web 2.0 suits your need as a student?

To me the most useful element of Web 2.0 would be Google. Google is a very famous search engine known world-wide. It is very useful because you can find any information about any subject needed at any time. A variety of any source of information is available. Which is needed more often when going into higher grades and getting older. Google is a very easy and obvious method of researching for information. As well, the information included is recently updated.

What are the benefits/advantages of the elements that Web 2.0 covers?

· With Web 2.0, information can be pulled from different places, and it can be personalized to however the person wants to.
· Web 2.0 will allow the population to communicate with each other and spread idea.
Information can flow freely and people can express their ideas easily.
The population would become more informed. Instead of getting information from once source, they can find their information from multiple (different) sources, this will allow them to make better decisions about the world around them.
A good example of this is the ability to read newspapers from various countries. You can view events from more than one view.
Another powerful advantage of Web 2.0 is communication. It has become obvious that the Internet is one of the greatest communication mediums in the world.
