Web 2.0

Ni cagando!

To all non-Spanish speaking readers of this blog (mother)? I?m sorry but it wouldn?t make sense to translate that.

To all Spanish speaking readers who aren?t familiar with the Chilean slang? I know, it just doesn?t make sense.

The concept Web 2.0, excuse my incompetent posture, would mean that the Web has already gone full circle with itself, its users and is now preparing for the next phase. Far beyond Web 1.0 and by light-years distanced from Web 0.1. In my humble opinion, I still think that the concept of rapidly moving information from one place to another is the major improvement provided to us, mankind, by Internet. Be that an e-mail or information stored somewhere presented anywhere else.

When Ford introduced the T-ford it gave ?everyone? the option to participate in the joy of driving. I?m sure there were fans cheering, dancing and screaming Car 2.0 in the streets and I?m sure their relatives feel quite bad about that today. It was still a pre-WW2 Ford. It went from 0-100 in 14 minutes, if ever at all. It only came in black and, looking back, it wasn?t really for everyone was it?

Web 2.0 also gives ?everyone? the option to participate? in the joy of wasting valuable time online (there I go again, swearing in my own church). Sharing information and being part of the Internet, not only a passive by-stander/watcher/stalker. It is an improvement, true! It gives more people the possibility of sharing knowledge, true!

? But I still have to go see a doctor when I feel bad.

The Web is a fairly young dude. Younger than I am and I am sure as **** not Oskar 2.0 yet, even if I sometimes perform better than as a kid. When I have a girlfriend, somewhere to live and a reasonably fixed view of my meaning of life Ill disclaim that I?m 1.0! I might even throw a party.

In my view, public air-transportation was Car 2.0? you see? not even a Car. The Car is not amazing because it?s a car, its amazing because it takes you faster (than on horse) from point A to point B. That would make the horse a Car 0.1... and so I realize that my argumentation is getting thinner by the sentence? so I should probably stop.
