Facts

The Internet was originally designed to support the exchange of information between those involved in scientific research and U.S. national defense. Clearly it has evolved into a powerful enabling technology for commerce, but its evolution has been hindered by constraints of the original design- a lack of security and sufficient bandwidth.

Recent technological advances enable the evolution of the Internet into a more powerful communications channel that will support the flow of larger volumes of more secure information. This incarnation of the Internet is being referred to as Web 2.0, and it is expected to dramatically affect how people integrate the Internet into their personal and professional lives.
