More Great Web 2.0 Software
Founding Web 2.0 Workgroup member Richard MacManus has recently become concerned about the cynicism of the Web 2.0 naysayers. To the point he feels like abandoning the term altogether. Though I understand where he's coming from, I believe he's somewhat over-concerned. To Richard, I say there will always be naysayers, no matter what is happening. And in this case, they generally aren't right.
Anyway, I find the arguments that most folks have against Web 2.0 to be very similar to the ones that people have made against a similar software concept, Service-Oriented Architecture. As I pointed out recently, Gartner thinks SOA will underpin 80% of all software development by the year 2008. Yet you can find otherwise completely responsible folks like Microsoft's Rich Turner claiming it doesn't exist at all. Unfortunately this, like denying Web 2.0 exists and is important, just belies reality. People are building and wiring together services into enterprise-wide and global service architectures, both SOA-style and Web 2.0-style. And on a very large scale too. Some significant examples of SOA successes can be found on this list from IBM or in giant SOA projects like the DoD's Horizontal Fusion program or the nascent Global Information Grid. Web 2.0 and SOA are both huge movements that are happening, like it or not. (More importantly, see the massive list of Web 2.0 software below if you're not sure) Unfortunately, folks like Russell Shaw (author of the ZDNet article mentioned above), seem to think that Web 2.0 is an attempt to describe something entirely new. It doesn't. As Tim O'Reilly made clear in his seminal description of Web 2.0 earlier this year, it represents the ideas that actually worked in the first generation of the Web. The arguments that folks like Shaw use, like saying that Web 2.0 is too big an umbrella, and represents unrelated concepts, and is nothing new, shows how uninformed even the experts are. And also represents a poor job by the folks that discuss it publicly (though the Web 2.0 Workgroup is certainly trying.) Unfortunately, all of this creates a distorted and incomplete view that is then propogated by the mainstream press, making it worse. So like any topic none of this will stop folks, who without facts and without bothering to actually study the ideas, from joining the naysayer bandwagon. And in the end it's just like Shaw says, denying what's happening here is like saying the earth is flat. As my post showed last week with all the incredible Web 2.0 software released in 2005 (which actively leverage various Web 2.0 best practices), not only is this stuff happening, but lots of people actually care about it (125,000 readers in 7 days on an otherwise obscure technology blog.) Anyway, thanks so much for the massive volume of comments and suggestions. I've now had a little time to take a look at the vast collection of great new Web 2.0 software I wasn't necessarily aware of yet and I've assembled a new list below. Without further ado, here's a summary of all the additional Web 2.0 software contributed by readers of this blog since last week: Please Note: This list is in addition to last week's Best Web 2. 0 Software of 2005 Both lists must be consulted for a complete view!
