2. Content Sharing
Content sharing using Web
2.0 ideas has grown in
importance and
acceptance in the business
world. Businesses are getting
their message out into the
world by sharing their
materials.

leverage existing
content have been
developed and
promoted with Creative

4. More About Content Sharing
• Has overlap and integration with social media.
• Web sites like YouTube are social media primarily
focused on video sharing.
• Content sharing important to business includes sites
that promote text, photos, videos, multimedia, e-
books, business presentations and artifacts.

offer photo hosting. A
photo on their site can be
displayed on a business
blog or Web site without
the photo being on the
business server. Reduces
storage space required
on a site.
13. Filtering/Recommendations

collaborating allow individuals to make
recommendations and provide opinions about online
content

to powerful individuals with access to press

Reddit, Delicious and others promote stories rated
highest by viewers

unanticipated social structures

• Relies on user community to create a self-organizing
reference system. Works this way:
(1) community member locates a Web site of interest
(2) they bookmark page so returning is easier

• A system such as this allows a user community to share
and categorize large numbers of bookmarks and create
an index of helpful Web sites
19. Tagging

social bookmarking
• Often key
components of
bookmarking sites

assigned by people

on the Web

of mobile devices to describe real world
geographic locations, features, and
other objects
