Many people have tried to define Web 3.0, however even Wikipedia the Almighty does not have a clear explanation as to what Web 2.0 is yet.
What we know so far is that the stages of the development of the Internet may be divided like this:
Web 1.0: Publishing and Information Sharing (The time of CMS, informative “read-only” websites, static personal pages, slow/dial up connection)
Web 2.0: User contribution and Interaction (open source software, dynamic user generated content, blogs and blogging communities, social networks, broadband)

Yesterday Google launched their new Gmail themes which allow every user to customize the layout of his e-mail box. Google team has announced they will provide this new function to all Gmail users within the next couple of days.

Honestly speaking I don’t ever use MSN Live Search as to me Google is the god of search; however I was hoping that some of my potential customers did use it and any additional visitor is beneficial for my site as I only use very targeted ads with high conversion rates.
