2. Rich User Experience. Content is dynamic and is responsive to user’s input. An example
would be a website that shows local content. In the case of social networking sites, when logged
on, your account is used to modify what you see in their website.

3. Long Tail. Services are offered on demand rather than on a one-time purchase. In certain
cases, time-based pricing is better than file-size-based pricing or vice versa. This is synonymous
to subscribing to a data plan that charges you for the amount of time you spent in the Internet,
or a data plan that charges you for the amount of bandwidth you used.

4. User Participation. The owner of the website is not the only one who is able to put
content. Others are able to place a content of their own by means of comment, reviews, and
evaluation. Some websites allow readers to comment on an article, participate in a poll, or
review a specific product (e.g., Amazon.com, online stores).

5. Software as a Service. (SaaS) Users will subscribe to a software only when needed rather
than purchasing them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a software.

6. Mass Participation. It is a diverse information sharing through universal web access. Since
most users can use the Internet, Web 2.0’s content is based on people from various cultures.
