O'Reilly and the origins of Web 2.0

Tim O'Reilly is generally referred to as the person who first defined Web 2.0. In October 2009 there was an update from him.

Learning about Web 2.0

One frequent way of learning is the "23 things" approach: people learn about a new type of Web 2.0 application every week, and have to do a small task and reflect on it. This is seen as a useful approach in the workplace. Below is an examples of "23 things" type initiatives which were undertaken in 2010  and 2011. Start with the EARLIEST blog post, and you can follow the course through! There is also a link to a 2008 course at Imperial College, London.
