The connectedness that many web2.0 sites and tools allow has been/is great and a giant leap forward in how we look at, think about, and use the web. The future, however, lies in adapting those same connected technologies to the real world. Web2.0 is still on the web, in the web, it is not (yet) in the real world thus limiting it’s true potential as a connecting force. In many ways all of the web2.0 apps have fragmented us more than they have connected us.
Which is why I’m a big believer in what Miachael is alluding to by this one example - that the future of the web is not on the web. The future is in it’s application to physical time/space as a means to connect the me-me, not the digital-me.
