5 Years On: ReadWriteWeb's 2004 Interview With Tim O'Reilly
Written by Richard MacManus / November 9, 2009 1:53 AM
Five years ago I interviewed tech publisher Tim O'Reilly about a new term that his company had just coined: Web 2.0. The first Web 2.0 conference had been held the previous month, October 2004, and O'Reilly had graciously agreed to give an interview to yours truly - "an unknown blogger from New Zealand," as I put it back then. The interview ran in a 3-part series (see also part 2 and part 3) and covered Web 2.0, new business models, social software and eBooks.
I've always been a big believer in learning from history as we look to the future. So let's re-visit this interview from five years ago and see how prescient the father of Web 2.0 was.

I am a big fan of both ReadWriteWeb and Tim O'Reilly - big picture thinkers!
