Web 2.0 Tools



To begin with, Web 2.0 is a concept, not a product, a way of thinking, a way of working, collaborative, social, sharing, reusing, and mixing data, Mashups it is all about taking control of your information

We should note that though web 2.0 involves all sorts of technologies, it is not all about technologies but, it is more about content and information and on how these tools enhance information fluency.

We have numerous web 2.0 tools most of which aid in the promotion of IL. Some of them are: Blogs, Wikis, Myspace, Facebook, Tags, Flickr and many others. They will be discussed below and we shall look at how they are promoting or enhancing Information Literacy.
