Guardian Weekend Magazine Web 2.0 special

Don't know what I think about this lot really. OK - so it is the weekend magazine. But boy, is the Guardian ever dumming it down. Nice pictures, well written. But if you know something about Web 2 already, you certainly won't learn anything new here. And if you don't - well you also won't learn anything new here.

So does this help us with media literacy - not, not all. But supposed it might go OK with a cup of coffee and a saturday morning hangover.
