You've all heard me babble about this before, but the big technology companies are fully embracing Web 2.0 concepts. Here's what John Chambers from Cisco had to say this week:

"Web 2.0 is here, and it's going to change the way we all do business, according to Cisco Systems Chairman and CEO John Chambers.
In several appearances at the Cisco Partner Summit this week in Las Vegas, Chambers hammered home the concept that Web 2.0 -- which he defines as the technologies that enable collaboration -- represents the next big opportunity for Cisco and its solution providers.
"I don't think there's ever been a better opportunity to be in this industry, a better time," Chambers said during a keynote address Thursday at the conference. "If you take away only one message from this conference, it's that we are committed to you. And if you take away a second message, it's that this is a transition to collaboration and Web 2.0 that gives us all an opportunity to achieve things that before we only got to dream about."
This seems to solidify Web 2.0 concepts as more than just a passing fad. The big IT players seem to be embracing the technology, which will have a big impact on how we write, edit, and display content.

Absolutely Web 2.0 is for real. I even heard a rumor about Web 3.0 on an industry podcast. Also the Google CEO is giving similar advice to people entering a technology career: be engaged.
