Web 2.0 Design Guides

What is Web 2.0 anyway?  In reality, Web 2.0 is the second coming of web services that put an emphasis on collaboration and sharing between users of the systems.  Another clear aspect of Web 2.0 sites, although not mandatory, is the clean design of these sites.  Big clear buttons, less columns, extremely simple interfaces.  All this makes these applications much more user friendly and useful.  I was going to set out to write a Web 2.0 Design Guide, and I still might, however, based on some searching on the internet, I decided I would first compile a list of excellent resources you can already use today!  Please comment below on your favorites, and any other additional resources you would like to see!

• Web 2.0 how-to design style guide
• Web 2.0 Design in a nutshell
• Web 2.0 Design Kit
• Web 2.0 Color Palette
• Web 2.0 style buttons

Anyway, this list should get you started on the path to Web 2.0 greatness.  From the overall, to how to actually make the buttons, all is covered in the links above.  Hope this helps you on your quest to enhancing your web sites!  Ok, time to get back to my Wii, I’m approaching pro status on boxing!

Top Ten Technologies for 2008

The following top 10 technologies and trends that will be strategic for most
organizations in 2008.

1. Green IT
The focus of Green IT that came to the forefront in 2007 will accelerate and
expand in 2008. Consider potential regulations and have alternative plans
for data center and capacity growth. Regulations are multiplying and have
the potential to seriously constrain companies in building data centers, as
the impact on power grids, carbon emissions from increased use and other
environmental impacts are under scrutiny.

Some companies are emphasizing their social responsibility behavior, which
might result in vendor preferences and policies that affect IT decisions.
Scheduling decisions for workloads on servers will begin to consider power
efficiency as a key placement attribute

2. Unified Communications
Today, 20 per cent of the installed base with PBX has migrated to IP
telephony, but more than 80 per cent are already doing trials of some form.
Gartner analysts expect the next three years to be the point at which the
majority of companies implement this, the first major change in voice
communications since the digital PBX and cellular phone changes in the 1970s
and 1980s.

3. Business Process Modeling

Top-level process services must be defined jointly by a set of roles (which
include enterprise architects, senior developers, process architects and/or
process analysts). Some of those roles sit in a service oriented
architecture center of excellence, some in a process center of excellence
and some in both.

4. Metadata Management

Through 2010, organisations implementing both customer data and product
integration and product information management will link these master data
management initiatives as part of an overall enterprise information
management (EIM) strategy.

Metadata management is a critical part of a company's information
infrastructure. It enables optimization, abstraction and semantic
reconciliation of metadata to support reuse, consistency, integrity and
shareability.

5. Virtualisation 2.0

Virtualisation technologies can improve IT resource utilisation and increase
the flexibility needed to adapt to changing requirements and workloads.
However, by themselves, virtualisation technologies are simply enablers that
help broader improvements in infrastructure cost reduction, flexibility and
resiliency.

6. Mashup & Composite Apps

By 2010, Web mashups will be the dominant model (80 per cent) for the
creation of composite enterprise applications. Mashup technologies will
evolve significantly over the next five years, and application leaders must
take this evolution into account when evaluating the impact of mashups and
in formulating an enterprise mashup strategy.

7. Web Platform & WOA

Software as a service (SaaS) is becoming a viable option in more markets and
companies must evaluate where service based delivery may provide value in
2008-2010. Meanwhile Web platforms are emerging which provide service-based
access to infrastructure services, information, applications, and business
processes through Web based "cloud computing" environments.

8. Computing Fabric

A computing fabric is the evolution of server design beyond the interim
stage, blade servers, that exists today. The next step in this progression
is the introduction of technology to allow several blades to be merged
operationally over the fabric, operating as a larger single system image
that is the sum of the components from those blades. The fabric-based server
of the future will treat memory, processors, and I/O cards as components in
a pool, combining and recombining them into particular arrangements to suits
the owner's needs. For example a large server can be created by combining 32
processors and a number of memory modules from the pool, operating together
over the fabric to appear to an operating system as a single fixed server.

9. Real World Web
The term "real world Web" is informal, referring to places where information
from the Web is applied to the particular location, activity or context in
the real world. It is intended to augment the reality that a user faces, not
to replace it as in virtual worlds.

It is used in real-time based on the real world situation, not prepared in
advance for consumption at specific times or researched after the events
have occurred. For example in navigation, a printed list of directions from
the Web do not react to changes, but a GPS navigation unit provides
real-time directions that react to events and movements; the latter case is
akin to the real-world Web of augmented reality. Now is the time to seek out
new applications, new revenue streams and improvements to business process
that can come from augmenting the world at the right time, place or
situation.

10. Social Software

Through 2010, the enterprise Web 2.0 product environment will experience
considerable flux with continued product innovation and new entrants,
including start-ups, large vendors and traditional collaboration vendors.
Expect significant consolidation as competitors strive to deliver robust Web
2.0 offerings to the enterprise. Nevertheless social software technologies
will increasingly be brought into the enterprise to augment traditional
collaboration.

Conclusion

The market analysts presented above findings, defines a strategic technology
as one with the potential for significant impact on the enterprise in the
next three years. Factors that denote significant impact include a high
potential for disruption to IT or the business, the need for a major dollar
investment, or the risk of being late to adopt. Sometimes the decision will
be to do nothing with a particular technology. In other cases it will be to
continue investing in the technology at the current rate. In still other
cases, the decision may be to test/pilot or more aggressively adopt/deploy
the technology. The important thing is to ask the question and proactively
plan."
