Due to the cancellation of this seminar in January we will be now running the following seminar in March
MmIT (the IT subgroup of CILIP) invites you to join us for the next event in our free evening seminar series.
Web 2.0 - A look beyond the hype and hope of the "Next Net"
Speaker: Jonathan Eaton (Electronic Resources Manager, London Business School)
Web 2.0 is the latest in a long line of Internet buzzwords and is an umbrella term used to describe many of the most visibly "new" web developments, including social networking tools (blogs, wikis, file sharing); "mash-ups" and "webtop" applications.
Starting with the origins of "Web 2.0", the talk will
- examine some key themes, technologies and models that power social networking web services and new enterprise techniques
- take a critical look at some of the assumptions and implications of the Web 2.0 movement
- evaluate the relative strengths and weaknesses of some of its key enabling technologies
- discuss its relationship and influence on persistent social and business challenges
The talk will take place on Tuesday 6th March 2007 at O'Neill's (Upper bar)
2-3 New Bridge Street
London. EC4V 6AA
Close to City Thameslink & Blackfriars mainline and underground station
