7 things to make your website appear more web 2.0

Awhile back I ran across a quote somewhere that stated "Web 2.0 is not a place but its a state of mind" and that does holds very true. The web technoligies behind web 2.0 websites like Digg, Twitter, and Flickr are nothing new but the way in which they are being utilized and their archeticture is. For the most part these sites use a combination of AJAX and CSS to deliver more of an interactive experience to the visitor.

Below I have listed 7 things that will make your website appear more web 2.0:

1. Implement related widgets into your site that offer visitor interaction
2. Use AJAX in combination with your web forms and search features
3. Add a social feature or promote your existing profiles on other social networks
4. Setup a blog and actually use it (dead blogs are no good)
5. Add videos, photos, and podcasts for multiple mediums of content (which can go mobile)
6. Offer your own widget to tie your site into other websites and social networks
7. Create a mobile friendly version of your website for cell phones and other mobile devices
