Web 2.0 Validator : Is your website web2 enough ?
Recently I stumbled upon this new website, Web 2.0 Validator. It claims to validate a website for its web2ness ,
This looks for usage of prototype.js in your website which is a common file used by web 2.0-ers. We want to make this easy but if you don’t understand how this works, you have no business controlling the fate of the internet.
Sr-Ultimate ranked a 14 out of 43 . But few things bug me…
Attempts to be XHTML Strict ? No As per w3.org sr-ultimate.com validates as XHTML 1.0.
Has favicon ? No I do have a favicon !
And
Appears to have Adsense ? Yes! : O common ! Whats so technical or new in using adsense !

He He, A lot of Web 2.0 companies are coming up lately. I had seen a collection of Web 2.0 logos, I dont remember the URL though.

One thing that is becoming more and more entertaining to me is how many people have been making superficial rules, like the adsense - or simply saying the right words, and feel that’s what Web 2.0 is.
Starting to make me think Web 2.0 is more about marketing than actually doing anything new…

Hmm, Could anyone tell me when did this trend start ? because I saw few news about Web 3.0 !

It gets even sillier if you check out their website. Here is some of their example code (human readable)…
"mentions_Ruby?", [ /ruby/ ]
“has_blogroll?”, [ /bloglines/ ]
“refers_to_delDOTicioDOTus?”, [ /del\.icio\.us/ ]
“attempts_to_be_XHTML_strict?”, [ /xhtml1-strict\.dtd/ ]
I’m frankly glad that someone has come right out and said it… you ain’t cool on the net, unless you mention “Ruby” or “Ajax” on every page as well as having a link to del.icio.us!… *hides from the 2.0ness of it all*
