 Web 2.0 Central Beta Launch

  • September 30th, 2005
  • 11:20 pm

In the spirit of Web 2.0 Companies, I’m beta launching the new and improved resource for all things Web 2.0. It still needs some work but it’s coming together (hence the beta). Converting all my posts from Blogger to Wordpress was fairly smooth but with the new style sheets, some of the posts need some hand tweaking.

The new site has been relocated to:

http://web2.0central.com/

Proudly, the domain is quite del.icio.us inspired and will conveniently work when we get to Web 3.0 or 4.0 or 88.0.

Those of your subscribed to my Feedburner feed have to do nothing as you’ll automatically be subscribed to the new location.

I think it looks MUCH better than the old version. I welcome your comments on the new look as well as leads for Web 2.0 Companies I have yet to cover.

 [HOT] Morfik - Web 2.0 Online/Offline Applications IDE

  • September 28th, 2005
  • 9:47 pm

Morfik is launching a new Web 2.0 application development environment that could be a tipping point in creating web based applications.

I’ll be doing a more in depth review but a few highlights:

  • Drag and drop interface creation
  • Online and offline use
  • Code obfuscation
  • Applications in pure HTML and Javascript
  • Visual relational database design
  • Visual query builder
  • More…

Two of their developers built a gmail clone in two months. THAT is amazing.

These guys are sure to be the star of the Web 2.0 Conference.

UPDATE: I’ve got more Morfik scoop here.

 New Web 2.0 Domain Coming Soon

  • September 27th, 2005
  • 9:50 pm

With the fantastic response this blog has received thus far, I’ve registered a great domain and will be setting up a Wordpress installation with hopefully a much nicer design. I think I picked the ugliest Blogger template so getting a better design won’t be too hard. If you’d like some exposure, I’ll have some inexpensive advertising/sponsorship opportunities coming with the new design.

I’ve been playing with some logo ideas. What do you think is a good visual or image that best represents Web 2.0? If you say a globe, please, don’t even bother adding a comment. :) Ideas? Heck, I may even round up a nice Web 2.0 prize!

While getting the new blog all setup, I’ve aquired QUITE a backlog of posts. I’ve been saving them all up and should have a bunch of new Web 2.0 companies to discuss. Stay tuned!

UPDATE: It’s now open for beta testers at http://web2.0central.com/.

 Tag Facts - Tag notes on the fly

  • September 20th, 2005
  • 12:07 am

Tag Facts is a unique service allowing you to create a note and tag it. This could be ultra handy for storing all those rarely used but hard to re-find snippets of information.

Where is a php.ini file stored? Put it in Tag Facts, and you’ve got it. How do I set up an .htaccess file? ‘Tag Fact’ it.

RSS Feeds lets you track your or your friends notes.

Throw an API on this and we’ve got yet another nice piece of the Web 2.0 puzzle.
