Some days del.icio.us/popular seems so conflicted. Like today. We have Web 2.0 List, which is kind of cool. It's a big huge tagged list (634 items at
present) of Web 2.0 sites and services and apps that you can rank or bookmark or digg. It's pretty Web 2.0 itself,
actually. Then there's Rich Ziade's essay Reality Check 2.0 at Basement.org, which
begins, "I think it's really important to occasionally step out of our own bubble and assess whether or not all
this 'stuff' is really breaking out of our world and into the rest of the world. Ironically, the most un-Web 2.0
platform of all, Myspace, defies all logic." And then there's Paul Boutin's Web 2.0 article in Slate, subtitled "The new Internet 'boom' doesn't live up to its name." Both Ziade
and Boutin make good points and aren't too long, so have a read. Then go back to the Web 2.0 List and keep clicking on
neat, if occasionally unuseful, stuff.A gazillion Web 2.0 sites, and a reality check

Check this out... A very, very interesting article on all this stuff that you guys are discussing... Indeed that is how I ended up in here, b/c there's a reference to this post in the article:
http://www.neomarketing.tv/archives/bubble_20_part_i_facebook_myspace_desperate_dinosaurs_web_20_buzz_machines_and_gazillion_other_startups.php
The guy is talking about "the dynamics of the "Bubble 2.0". So a lot of discussion revolving around Web 2.0, what is hype, what is real, why the entry barriers to the social media space are very minimal, and how a popular service can quickly lose its “cool”... And all that...
I can't say that I'm very knowledgeable about this stuff, but his discussion was quite intuitive, and definately worth to check out...
