Transparency is an interesting, tricky subject when it comes to actual, real people and probably has acceptable limits. The same does not go for corporations, of course!

I look forward to the book. Great responses. Taking the names down shows us a real glimpse into who you are (considerate) which is part of the transperancy which may attract us to blogging and sharing. For some (all?), the transperancy is a bit uncomfortable, yes? We're all living in a glass web. Web 2.Ouch: How’d All These People Get in my Room?

And the consensus seems to be that you are correct. As much as we warble about communication models and so-forth, that doesn't matter a dickybird to the man on the clapham omnibus. My own interest here is nakedly commercial. I am writing a book which was going to be called 'Web 2.0' (I suspect I am locked in to that now, from what I have come to understand about the book market). So I suppose my ideal answer would have been "No, but it sounds really interesting. Can you recommend any books on the subject?" But I guess that isn't going to happen. ;) Thanks for coming, Michael.

Thanks for posting. I wonder if this a bit of wanting mass market recognition for a notion being generated in a narrowcast form of media? First visit to your site - thanks for adding to the conversation around Web 2.0! Good thought generating observation. Thanks for posting.

Some are surprisingly accurate. Given what I know now, my answer would be almost identical to our friend from Bothell. "I have no idea - a new generation of the web?" "idealized version of the web" - spot on. "next generation of web technologies" - absolutely. These answers are way better than I'd expect (yes with the obvious exclusion of our friend the IT consultant). Read them again! Some are surprisingly accurate.

And to be honest, consumers don't really needs to know any of the theory stuff to enjoy the fruits of this change. Bit embarassing for the IT Consultant on the list, though... Agree with you.
