    1. Tags and categories are not the same.

      Anyways, the main point I want to bring across is:

      Do not switch when there is no need to. Web 2.0 style suits some sites and dont for others. Several sites changed their well known logo to be web 2.0, critiques and their own loyal readers disliked it. So think before acting. It does not mean everyone is doing it and so do you.

    2. These are great tips :) Before this I didn’t know what was Web2.0 XD hahaha..

    3. Hi Swift,
      I agree with you. Actually in some countries, web 1.0 websites are more popular than web 2.0 websites. The most important is we need to interact with our readers and provide good contents.

    4. […] TechSnack has a interesting post on 10 steps to convert your website from web1.0 to web2.0. […]

    5. I didn’t get with the 2nd point of using “tags” instead of “categories”. It makes no sense for me.

    6. wow.. nice.. i write chinese version for this post… hahaha
