What is Web 2.0?
Web 2.0 refers to the second generation of the Web, which enables people with no specialized technical knowledge to create their own websites, to self-publish, create and upload audio and video files, share photos and information and complete a variety of other tasks.

Examples of Web 2.0 Sites

Part One:
Choose one of the tools on this site, http://cogdogroo.wikispaces.com/Dominoe+50+Ways, to create a story using the building pictures provided on the L drive.  The pictures are in the folder named: BuildingPictures.

Part Two:
Use a different tool to tell a story of your choice.  It can be a hobby, sports, a pet, your family or friends…..

Here is an example of a short story of my kids at Disney World last year, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju2SS1HGWs0

We will be completing a series of Microsoft FrontPage lessons online.  The first one, Create a Website with FrontPage, will help you understand the design process.  After completing the tutorial, sketch your personal website on paper or use Word, Excel, or Google Docs to create it.  You may also try Gliffy Online Diagram Software or Lovely Charts Online.
