web 2.0 haircut

A shaved head with a goatee or van dyke, often accessorized with thick-framed glasses, or the person sporting such a look. Implies a certain degree of poseurism or gentle mocking. Derived from the unusual prevalence of this look among new media types and those who style themselves to be new media types. The original web 2.0 haircut was probably worn by Seth Godin, although he never followed through with the beard.

"We wanted to hire an SEO firm, but we ended up with some guy with a web 2.0 haircut."

Web 2.0

Pretty much the current generation of the internet and this will probably last til about 2012. It is the internet where blogging, social networking, forums, wikis, video sharing, webcams, sharing, getting pwned, etc. takes place.

Web 1.0 was the primitive internet where you went to campbells soup.com and there it is. Web 2.0 is pretty much where you can read and post blogs about soup and share info about your favorite soup on your Facebook profile. There is a Web 3.0 coming into the future which will probably be the iPhone Web, in which the internet might be in different places than a computer.

Kraft.com is Web 1.0
MySpace.com is Web 2.0

Web 2.D'oh!

Used to describe 1) a failed Web 2.0 company or 2) a poor implementation of a successful Web 2.0 service

1) That Web 2.D'oh! company provided a calendar that you can share. Like we really needed another one of those. Sorry but a glossy logo can't turn a bad idea into a goldmine.

2) Did you see that company added a twitter feed to their site? Talk about a Web 2.D'oh! implementation. The only people following it are the other employees and that's probably because they are forced to.

Web 2.0

Refers to the internet in terms of blogging, open source programming, RSS and XML programming among others. Web 2.0 is a general discription of web use which eschews heretofore traditional concepts of centralized, "hunt by favoritets" type search and response techniques in favor of aggregators and blogging interconnects and decentralized community systems.

"Bookmarks are so old school, geek. Aggregators and podcasting are more Web 2.0..."

web 2.0

The one millionth word to be added to the english dictionary. It is likely to have been chosen with special treatment, given the other words competing with it, such as "defriend" and "noob", which are almost universally used by the mainstream population, as opposed to the lesser known word "web 2.0". The selection was a brass balls attempt for the elite to brag about their plans for web 2.0. This may possibly be used as a suggestion that even the process for adding English words is rigged!

Hey noob, I'm going to defriend the elite because they influenced web 2.0 into becoming the 1 millionth english word.
