    I just had to answer this very question for the administration where I work. Web 2.0 is a buzzword meant to make people think that some current Web applications are somehow a big departure from earlier ones. Even Tim Berners-Lee, the guy who essentially invented the World Wide Web, doesn't know what Web 2.0 means. In essence, it's nothing new.

      Web 2.0 is a loosely defined intersection of web application features that facilitate participatory information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design and collaboration on the World Wide Web. A Web 2.0 site allows users to interact and collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators (prosumers) of user-generated content in a virtual community, in contrast to websites where users (consumers) are limited to the passive viewing of content that was created for them. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services, web applications, mashups and folksonomies.
