The lead story in the latest Newsweek (April 3) is focused on “new” web applications (“Putting the We in WEB). The discussion, which covers MySpace, Flikr, etc. and a collection of Web 2.0 startups I have not encountered (e.g., Plum, Jajah), includes interviews with founders of some of the more well-known services. The interviews provide some insight into what the writers (Steven Levy & Brad Stone) and company founders see as the key features of new offerings (e.g., community, user-generated content).
