I was going through the blogs I like to read, e.g. The Personal Branding Blog or Web Strategy by Jeremiah, when I realized that you can assign “2.0″ to almost everything. Or can you assign it to everything?

Before I got into online marketing or the professional usage of social media, “2.0″ would have meant nothing to me. But when I furthered my Internet related knowledge from how to read and write emails, download music and use facebook (or studivz) to FTP, Wordpress, twitter networking and more, I first got to know what Web 2.0 actually is.

Tim O’Reilly explained it very good in his article “What is Web 2.0“.

By switching from “1.0″ to “2.0″, the web entered a new age of it’s usage, applications and definition. Becoming something more.

Related to Technology I understand “2.0″ as a sign, which tells me that this is a product’s successor or its second improved version. Nowadays however, “2.0″ gets used outside of the world of High Tech to assign the meaning: “related to Web 2.0″ as I may put it.

A few examples are:
PR 2.0
Business 2.0
Enterprise 2.0
Taiwan 2.0
Arbeit 2.0

It is fascinating what can be done in Web 2.0. I am thinking about a lot more you could do with it:

Pregnancy 2.0:
Sites with information about pregnancy exist, let’s take it to another level and create a social networking site, with discussion boards about what to eat and how to workout (I agree with people saying in the future every website will be social). Women could upload their belly pictures and scan prints of their baby. Later in life the once newborn can say: “I got my first online profile when I was an embryo”. Generation web?

Ethic 2.0:
Does anybody think about ethic while writing a blog? Maybe you should. Practice value management online!

Or maybe science 2.0… wait there someone was faster!

I belive the web will soon influence every aspect of life. It will be your job to improve it, it will help you find a partner and answers every question you might have? Did we find the holy grail and not realize it?

What are your ideas? Opinions?
