What is web 2.0?
from Wikipedia:
"The phrase Web 2.0 was coined by O'Reilly Media to refer to a supposed second generation of Internet-based services that let people collaborate and share information online in a new way—such as social networking sites, wikis, communication tools, and folksonomies. O'Reilly Media, in collaboration with MediaLive International, used the phrase as a title for a series of conferences and since then it has become a popular, if ill-defined and often criticized, buzzword amongst the technical and marketing communities..."

My understanding is that Web 2.0 is a website which is an interactive application instead of Web 1.0 which was just static webpages.
So basically any application on the internet which uses database and interactive applications to provide a customized experience for the user.
a technology bubble.

No, that's not correct. If that were the definition, Web 2.0 would have started back in 1995.
Well it has. But only recently have people started to be conscious about the possibillities with building very intelligent interactive websites..
from wikipedia:
Web 2.0 is a term often applied to a perceived ongoing transition of the World Wide Web from a collection of websites to a full-fledged computing platform serving web applications to end users. Ultimately Web 2.0 services are expected to replace desktop computing applications for many purposes.
