Why are companies paying billions of dollars to advertise on these sites? What becomes of the web when much of the content is made up - when we can't tell truth from nonsense, journalism is created by a boy in his bedroom? Learn why fortunes are made, investors reap profits, and the spiral continues.

  • Did you know that over 55 percent of teens aged 12-17 have an online profile?
  • Can you read a newspaper without wondering what these are: FaceBook, social networking, MySpace, and Twitter?
  • Should you use Web 2.0 social networking sites for your business, your non-profit, your group?
  • Learn the benefits and risks of exposure for children on social networking sites.

Written by a computer consultant, covering technology for 12 years, follow the birth of this craze, from the days of free music downloads, to digital cameras capturing things people wish they didn't do. See what is posted on these social networking sites, and give serious thought to what becomes of our culture when everything is public, when 15 minutes of fame is reduced to a few seconds. Where is the meaning? Are Web 2.0 sites also used for good purposes?

The Mysterious World of Web 2.0 ebook provides an overview of Web 2.0 and ponders what it means to us as individuals.

Also called social networking, Web 2.0 is a new phase of the internet: reaching out to web users for a shared experience, rather than delivery of static web pages or the one-way commentary on most blogs.

Corporations are in billion-dollar bidding wars to own these online services, because the users represent massive potential revenue for advertisers.

But what do these sites do? Who has time to use them, and what effect will they have on literacy and culture? This is a worldwide issue that has significant effect on what children are doing in school, how they learn, and what they will become. We need to know, but don't understand the lingo and don't have time... so here, in about 40 pages is an adult perspective on the good & bad of Web 2.0, along with some startling statistics about teen use of these sites.
