Introduction
This project will introduce two Web 2.0 applications,
FlipSnack and LinkedIn.
FlipSnack is an online flipping book software that allows
you to convert PDF documents into Flash page flip digital
publications. Once created, you can embed your flipping
book collection, download them or share them on social
networking websites such as Facebook.
LinkedIn is a business-related social networking site,
mainly used for professional networking and discussions
on related issues.

Summary
We can use Web 2.0 applications to share information,
create user-centered design, and engage in interaction and
collaboration. These applications can create a virtual
community for us and our students. We can use it for social
networking, blogging, wikis, and video sharing. Web 2.0
becomes a transport mechanism for interactivity and
participation.
The two Web 2.0 applications we introduced should help
you feel more comfortable with this technology and be ready
to embrace its use. You have seen how Web 2.0 can be
useful in teaching students as demonstrated with FlipSnack
and by interacting with fellow educators as demonstrated
with LinkedIn.
