Web 2.0 is not a design standard !

[egogmail]

I am being reached by lots of company and personals to design their website by following web 2.0 standards. But I am still confused... did any major design things are happened in this standard?

I think there are no clear cut design changes in web 2.0 standards. Only we are defining new technology and there usage here. So in an experienced designer’s perspective I would like to tell that, there are no much design changes between the earlier and the web 2.0 standards.

Innovative designs have happened all these years and the web and UI designs have gone through these kinds of changes. So the web 2.0 is just a term to define the latest technology and trends the people started using in the web. Yes, it’s a collaboration of the usability, technology and design.

Design is always evolving and we can’t restrict these by giving the terms. Even in web or other areas, the people approach with design has changed according to social changes and approach. So web design, UI design will evolve so... we can’t define by giving some name or tag... as “Web 2.0 design”.
