Zeldman holds forth on Web 2.0. A very interesting and well-considered take on tags, AJAX, RSS and other latter-day Web buzzwords.

For the uninitiated, Jeffrey Zeldman has been a Web guru since the early days (ye gods, 1994????).

He really hates Web 2.0, eh? I see his point to a certain degree. It seems though that his disdain for some of the conventions of whatever the hell web 2.0 really is is clouding his judgement to some extent. Are Ruby and Ajax, for example, really that evil?

Web 2.0 is 36pt text in primary colors, with icons of little clouds shitting out thunder or whatever the weather is in your area. Whereas Zeldman is zippy alt tags on my wang for easy accessibility.
