Technologies for Web 2.0 Websites

If someone wants to understand what is Web 2.0 design he must first be familiar with what is the meaning of Web 2.0. Web 2.0 phrase stands for the supposed second generation of the web that focuses on collaboration and sharing of information among users.

What was previously one-way highways of the old web is now replaced by a community-driven world of Web 2.0.

Some of the things related to Web 2.0 include , RSS (really simple syndication) feeds, blogs, social bookmarking websites and the like.

All of them have common factors of having interactivity and communication between the website owner and the visitors, as well as among the visitors themselves.

If you want to have a web 2.0 website, there are several skills you need to get the job done. Some need a high learning curve, meaning that they are easy to learn, while others need more effort in order to be executed properly.

I have listed down some of the skills needed in creating web 2.0 websites.

1. Need a graphics editor

- this is very important when you wish to create graphics for your website. A good graphics editor can do jobs such as simple photo editing to more complex ones such as creating gradient and reflection effects. Photoshop and GIMP are popular graphics editors used by designers. GIMP is good if you cant afford photoshop

2. HTML

- HTML is basic of web designing and it is must for any web designer needs to have. HTML is a markup language, and just like other markup languages, it tells the computer how the graphics and other elements of the page will be displayed. Basic tags are enough to let normal users get by, but knowledge of more specialized tags are needed by those who want to build better websites.

3. CSS

- is short for Cascading Style Sheets. It is also a must for a good web designer. Having a style sheet for a website makes it easier for designers to design a page by assigning values to tags such as those used in paragraphs, lists and the likes. With a style sheet, a style can be easily applied by using a variable on any part of the site.

4. Flash

- is a program used for creating animations, games and entire websites. Knowledge on how to use this is a must among web designers. While the basic commands will be enough for most users, Flash’s ActionScript gives people more control over their creations.
