Massachusetts Health Data Consortium, Waltham, MA
Presented by

Description
The experiences being provided in the online channel are at a
pivotal point – users are demanding amazing new and exciting features
and technology is now here that can help deliver it. Web 2.0 will
be at the forefront of this revolution. Unfortunately, it doesn’t
come in a box with installation instructions and a users guide.
This loosely-used term has many meanings and interpretations – you
may have heard 2.0 million different descriptions – but it’s time
to get to the bottom line of Web 2.0. What is this new phenomenon,
and what does it mean for your site and your eBusiness?
During this session, Molecular’s user experience and
technology experts will offer attendees an overview
of this turning-point in the Internet space, with a
detailed breakdown of each facet: user participation,
openness and rich interfaces. They’ll delve into each
area, sharing their in-depth knowledge and real-Web
experiences, including emerging best practices, usability
challenges, implications to your eBusiness, and examples
of what Web 2.0 makes possible. Attendees will gain
a thorough understanding of when and how it is best
to incorporate the elements of Web 2.0 into your online
experience, as well as suggestions and tips on what
not to do. In addition, the presenters will touch on
the technologies and technicalities of Web 2.0, plus
reference resources.
