The term "Web 2.0" was coined by Darcy DiNucci in 1999.
In her article "Fragmented Future," she writes:
“The Web we know now, which loads into a
browser window in essentially static screenfuls, is only an
embryo of the Web to come. The first glimmerings of Web
2.0 are beginning to appear, and we are just starting to see
how that embryo might develop. ... The Web will be
understood… as a transport mechanism, the ether through
which interactivity happens. It will… appear on your
computer screen,… on your TV set… your car dashboard…
your cell phone… hand-held game machines… and maybe
even your microwave.”
