I flew out today and now I'm back online, I find my post has 12000+ views. Thanks for visiting everyone, and if you have any questions or bones to pick, please post them here. I would love to start a debate.
And to answer the common question found in the digg comments: yes the end line about Web 2.5 is sarcasm, a little tribute to the fluff also surrounding Web 2.0. I do NOT think Web 2.0 is hype, but it's an umbrella term for all the things I mentioned in my original post, but obviously there is some hand waving going on. Hence the sarcasm
