Abstract

Web 2.0 is the evolution of the web. Seen as a new and second movement of access to information through the world wide web, Web 2.0 brings interactivity and collaboration as the main keys to its functioning. It is now possible and simpler and faster to send information at any time, by any user connected to the internet. The ease of uploading information, images, and videos on the Web 2.0 is due to the expansion of resources and codes, allowing anyone to be able to act naturally and take their own content to the internet. As the data and information shared daily is almost infinite, the search engines act even more intuitively and bring only results tailored to each user. Therefore, this chapter aims to provide an updated review and overview of Web 2.0, addressing its evolution and fundamental concepts, showing its relationship, as well as approaching its success with a concise bibliographic background, categorizing and synthesizing the potential of technology.
