Hello all,

> Web 2.0 = Semantic web [+ AJAX] ?

To me a site that is part of "Web 2.0" has the ability to replace a
desktop app. Witness gmail--(nearly) as featureful and responsive as
any desktop mail client. Witness writely.com (collaborative AJAX-based
"Web Word Processor"--which google bought, btw).

I realize this is only one part of the Web 2.0 concept, but for me it
is the most powerful part.
