Research 2.0

Research 2.0, I've discovered, is not so much different from research 1.0. I guess the 2.0 comes into play because of all the additional material available to look through on the Internet. Those sources need to be criticized and cited like any other material, so I suppose this chapter in Web 2.0: Making the Web Work for You might give someone new information. It is certainly good to keep as a quick reference for a newbie to Internet research- but search engines are pushing it for most of us. I did think the mind-mapping tool featured in the chapter was interesting. I am familiar with some mind-mapping software, but hadn't seen anything on the Web. That's good to keep in mind when I won't want to pay for the Inspiration license one day.
