=Web 2.0: Definition= The following definition was found in a website called: neubertweb.com. If you simply search the term in a search engine like Google and skim the results you can get a pretty broad selection of responses, from comedic and simple like this one, to jaded and ironic, to uptight, formally correct. For our purposes, this one will do!

=== Web 2.0 One of those "cool" terms that is batted around with little definition. It refers to the “second generation” Web, today’s WWW that is more interactive and participatory than the Web used to be. Most people use it to refer to things like social networks such as Facebook, and other sites such as YouTube, where people can post stuff and others can comment. Some people are referring to "Web 3.0" already. ===

Web 3.0 Definition: Even cooler than Web 2.0.


=== "APP" DEFINITION (from www.definethat.com) Short for ‘application program’, as opposed to a systems program. Apps are what systems vendors are forever chasing developers to create for their environments so they can sell more boxes. Hackers tend not to think of the things they themselves run as apps; thus, in hacker parlance the term excludes compilers, program editors, games, and messaging systems, though a user would consider all those to be apps. (Broadly, an app is often a self-contained environment for performing some well-defined task such as ‘word processing’; hackers tend to prefer more general-purpose tools.)=== "Brushes" is an app available for iPhone or iPad that can be used to paint or draw additions to photos or simply to paint or draw.

What is a Wiki?

A Wiki is a website or similar online resource which allows users to add and edit content collectively. The word "wiki" is a Hawaiian word that means quick, and that's how wikis work: quickly! Each of you will be creating your own Wiki. It will be your responsibility to keep your Wiki up-to-date, add images, respond to discussion questions and load your images and videos.

Three sets of directions for all of you:
1) If you've never joined a wiki before, click "Join This Wiki" and then click getting started. For your user name, write your own name like this: first_last. This way I can tell you your user name in the future, in case you forget. I can't ever help you with your password so pick one you'll always remember.

2) If you already have a wikispaces user name, click "Sign In" in the upper right tool bar. Enter your username and password. Return to this page and click "Join This Wiki" on the top of the left navigation pane. When you see the pop up window, just click the "Request Membership" button. That's it!

3) If you're already a member of this wiki, help other people join while you wait for us all to get in.
