Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is rapidly changing the landscape of the entire world, not just business models. With what were previously thought of as 3rd world countries gaining more and more access to emerging technologies, as well as seeing an increase in their education and skills, it is more important now than ever for the US to reclaim global dominance. With China, Brazil, India, and Russia quickly expanding their economies, we need to not become content with our position as a leading global power but look to expand that lead. Web 2.0 can help us do that. Social media, blogs, and video sharing are becoming more and more prominent by the day and can be a great source of advertising. If companies and organizations want to spread the word about a brilliant new idea or opportunity, whether it be Facebook or YouTube, the advertisement opportunity is there for the taking. Many businesses these days have their own Facebook page where users can go to learn more and more about the business. With the current state of the US economy and rise of others, it is now more important than ever that US corporations spread the word of their work to US citizens and promote their intellectual growth so the US can expand its worldwide dominance.
