Cool Anyone old enough to remember Web 2.0?

Wasn't sure if this would be a 'breakroom' post or 'etrends'?

Does anyone out there, besides myself, remember the revolution of Web 2.0 that swept the globe when Marc Andreessen created the Mosaic browser allowing us the public to view graphics and multi-media online?...

That was called Web 2.0 and I remember the incredible surge it caused, it lasted right up into about 2000, 2001, we were still converting the old Web 1.0 (text only) information sites to graphical layouts.

I keep thinking the revolution with interaction brought about through the newer technologies of xhtml / css / ajax etc. should be referred to as Web 3.0?

Anyone else feel similarly? Anyone remember hand coding HTML before standards existed, and how horrible those new fangled WYSIWYG things were in the beginning? lol
