Great post here on why it may be way to soon to start thinking about the demise of Web 2.0. The dot com companies imploded and the Internet grew more and more important to our daily lives. Web 2.0 is about architecture and about how apps are developed, it is not about the fate of a few companies (some good, some not so good) that are using the platform to launch new businesses. Many will fail, so what? That might be important from an investment perspective but a lot less so from how the platform will evolve and transform the computing paradigm, and the way that we interact with and experience apps. It is the user experience that is being transformed (think Apple), and empowered user/producers will cause changes to happen across the economy, within already established companies, not just those that are breaking new ground.
