< Go2Web20 >

Go2Web20 is a great website for web 2.0 tools and applications. What it is is basically a directory for everything web 2.0. That might not sound like much... but it really is. Almost anything you want a tool or website for on the Internet can be found here. Normally when there is a new web 2.0 application or tool, you will find it there first. This website has 1000's of websites about almost any type of thing you could use the Internet for. You can look through all of them by browsing through pages of logos, or by typing in something in the search box. When you click on something you are interested in, it gives you a little summary of what that certain website does. This is a very useful tool - if you are looking for something to do with audio, then just browse the topic "audio" and you will get tons of websites that let you do all kinds of things with audio. If you clicked on "social" it will bring up pages and pages of different social networking websites. Same goes for "video" - if you browse by "video" you will get hundreds of websites with very useful tools for video, all sorts of tools and websites will be available to use, like video converters, video hosting, sharing, downloading, and anything else you can think of. Using this web site you can also find tons of tools or add-ons for popular we sites. If you want some add-ons for twitter, just search "twitter" in the search box and there will be hundreds of things that you can add on to twitter! There are lots of cool things that I never even thought about, that you can just add on to many web sites just by searching them at Go2Web20. So I decided to actually try out one of these tools to see if there was anything good, and I actually found something really cool. By searching "facebook" I found a bunch of programs in a list, and one of them was called "http://feeder.fm/". What it does is let you search through a huge database of songs, by artist or song name, and then you can actually listen to any song you want for free just by pressing play! On top of that, you can actually post it on your facebook profile for people to listen too! All you do is click the "feed it!" button and it actually posts it on your facebook profile! This is really cool, because I always thought to show off music to your friends you needed to find it in a YouTube video, but not anymore! Thanks to Go2Web20 and Feeder.FM, I can find cool songs and post them on facebook! I made the following image to show how i used Feeder.Fm.

Definition of Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is a term used to describe internet that is freely available for users from all over the world to use, edit, share and interact with each other on. It is mainly the new way that people can use the internet. IT is very flexible and easy to use, and instead of one person controlling websites, many people do. It is not only used on a computer but it is used on many mobile devices. With web 2.0 users can not only retrieve information but they can run software applications, games, movies all through a web browser. You can also easily make your own web pages, profiles, and blogs, and other people can edit or contribute to them.
