Joel Spolsky is so very annoyed by the Web 2.0 term:
The term Web 2.0 particularly bugs me. It’s not a real concept. It has
no meaning. It’s a big, vague, nebulous cloud of pure architectural
nothingness.
I wonder if the problem comes when we attribute something "architectural" to it. I don’t think it is. As some kind of "visionary fluffy concept", it can certainly have some meaning. I have no problem with that, such concepts can be OK for what they are. But the architecture astronauts will most certainly use it for their purposes; I guess that’s when we’ll all be annoyed.
