The concept Web 2.0 is often used albeit few people are able to give a clear explanation of that term.

Blogs, wikis, online desktop software, RSS feeds, podcasts, personal search engines, customizable pages, networks and social bookmarks, folksonomies, tags…
The apparition of Web 2.0 represents a radical evolution in the web where the web user plays an active and collaborative role. Christophe Asselin, an acknowledged expert in the field, reveals in Digimind’s new White Paper the usefulness of these information sources for market intelligence and information research.

This document aims at clarifying  the Web 2.0 concept for “Knowledge Workers” and at describing the techniques able to leverage on it in the context of competitive intelligence. It is destined for all company employees who for the moment have only limited or no practice with the various applications that can be categorized under this concept. By familiarizing them with these tools we hope to sharpen the relevance of their research and intelligence activities.
