Web 2.0 is a term used all the time and is not limited to a specific narrow definition, but is more representative of an entire change in the workings, marketing, and technology a website embraces. I like to think of the Web 2.0 philosophy as the idea of a website as a continually changing entity (as opposed to a non-changing service) which is being redrawn, reinvented, and changed based on the input of the site’s users and what would add the most value to the online community. As the community or network grows, so does the sites value in the continuous strive for improvement.
One way a site will sometimes symbolizes this is with the addition of the word “beta” to a web site’s graphical motif. Unfortunately beta use to actually have a technical meaning outside of web 2.0; incomplete, buggy, in test mode. I still support the idea they want to represent and I’m happy when I see a site with the term "beta" worked into it, even though it’s technically used incorrectly.
