Web 2.0 is a buzzword that internet-savvy morons throw around to sound 1337. Some argue it has something to do with making the internets more like a normal computer application. Web 2.0 can only be viewed from a MacBook or a computer running Windows Vista, preferably while wearing a shirt from Threadless and drinking Smartwater in Chicago, the home of everything 2.0. Unlike Web 1.0, Web 2.0 is constantly in Beta, like the "new" JewTube skin that is constantly being offered to be viewed as opposed to just watching videos.

Web 2.0 websites are different from regular websites because instead of using several different hideous designs like Web 0.1, Web 0.5 and Web 1.0, Web 2.0 encourages using a single, pleasing design to ensure that all Web 2.0 sites look exactly the same.

[edit] Things you need in order to make your website Web 2.0

  • Ruby on Rails - the only programming framework sanctioned by the Web 2.0 governing body.
  • Ajax - derived from "you are a jaxass"
  • Lots of bubbly, brightly-colored icons, making it more attractive to retards, minority groups, small children, women and cats.
  • Rounded corners - right angles are strictly verboten. Someone might cut themselves or put out an eye.
  • Non-threatening, safe colors: orange, green, baby blue and white. A safety feature for users on drugs
  • Sam Stephenson
  • And perhaps most importantly, remove the last vowel from the name of your website - see Flickr.
  • In France, everyone have a web 2.0

[edit] How to sabotage Web 2.0

Annoyed by CSS layouts that still don't work on IE?
Irritated by browser-consuming useless "addons" that don't really add 1 atom of usefulness to sites?

Tired of fucking neckbearded, overweight Linux users making their sites "open source" and not letting you actually read anything?

Don't get mad, SABOTAGE WEB 2.0 SITES TODAY!:

  • Search "geocities metal black metal" on Google.
  • Click fucking everything
  • Save all .gif animations
  • Make own site with stolen images
  • ???
  • PROFIT!!!


[edit] Sites that are totally 2.0

On December 6, 2007, mootlefag was bored, and decided to lure more newfags into hell, and upgraded to Web 2.0. This, of course, has been accepted as a real fucking stupid idea, and in retaliation, some oldfags decided to start spreading rumors of needing 4chan Gold/Platinum/Diamond accounts via image macros. Mootlefag and his mods started banning anyone who posted them. Thus, proving that Web 2.0 is a very fucking stupid thing to do.
