The
term Web 2.0 has become ubiquitous with all things web-related over the past six

The term Web 2.0 has become ubiquitous with all things web-related
over the past six months. High end technologies revolving around Ajax,
Laszlo, Flex, and Microsofts new SilverPoint promise to usher in a new
era of functionality to websites, also known as Rich Internet Applications (RIA). Sites
like Myspace and Facebook have revolutionized the consumer technologies world,
and businesses are looking to join in and capitalize on the wealth of opportunities. A
report released by Gartner Research shows that over the next five years businesses
will rush to implement tools such as Myspace features along with online worlds
such as Second Life and Entropia.
Viyya Technologies is set to possibly capitalize on this because the company
is currently in development of a Peer to Peer Web 2.0 platform. It takes
the benefits of a structured search engine, ie personalized keywords in finance,
and fuses it with the collaborative nature of Web 2.0 sites such as Myspace,
37signals, and Facebook. Businesses would be better suited to focus on
custom platforms instead of trying to use a consumer platform. The use
of products like VYON offers gives a company needed customization and it protects
them from security nightmares, like have been exposed in Myspace and 3D worlds
such as Second Life. The thrust of the software is to create a closed community
where only professionals within a given field can interact and share information
from structured searches, custom wikis, and websites that the user has bookmarked. The
Web 2.0 craze is here to stay as more businesses make the switch to dynamic
RIAs to enhance the user experience. Business looking to take advantage
of consumer technologies should be wary of the security holes and focus on platforms
that cater to their individual needs.
