I think it's one off those hyped buzz words, some new javascript gimmicks and you increment the version of the internet...
Web2.0 is Bs, It's just regular websites which are a little more optimized or something, which they call a 'revolution' blegh. Esspecialy microsoft tends to use this term with no meaning at all
I also like many of the clean CSS driven designs. And if your definition of Web 2.0 includes community driven sites, semantically valid markup, syndication of data, and clean meaningful URLs (also helpful for SEO) then I think there are many good things about Web 2.0. Sure there is plenty of hype as well.

I'm pretty sure my websites that I made long before the 2.0 hype do all the things you mentioned in there!
Yeah you never can say internet is going into a new tier, it grows and evolves step by step. Maybe with the exploiding growth of broadband users there might be somesort of big step. But seeing it from the designing point of view it's always in very small steps...
Eh, just another buzz word. While there are definately some benefits to the whole thing that have been mentioned, web 2.0 is just a buzz word coined to bring in the publicity.
I do admit I like a lot of the designs associated with it, but then a lot of sites are now trying to be "web 2.0" when they really shouldnt be. For example, not all sites need to be weighed down with javascript just because its neat.

I like the look & feel of web 2.0 sites and find the overall enthusiasm and mindset of the earliest players very inspiring. I guess the buzz is going to die down as more and more lookalikes enter the cyberspace, though...

This kinda sums it up, what is actually ment by web2.0 but i dont think you can determine site by a number. For example simple community sites with a integrated forum but without a user, blogging feature would be classified as web1.7 or something?!
I know what they mean by web 2.0, but it sound stupid because it was long there before 'web 2.0' was declared. Why dont just call it interactive-community based webspace or whatever..
