"Im Web 2.0, oft auch 'Mitmachweb', kann jeder Teilnehmer selber Produzent/Lieferant von Informationen und Inhalten werden. Inhalte werden über ein System von enger Vernetzung weitergegeben -- diese Vernetzung ist sozial zwischen Menschen (Friends, Follower) sowie auch technisch über standardisierte Schnittstellen (APIs, RSS)."

"Die meisten Unternehmen haben den Nutzen von Web 2.0 noch nicht verstanden. Dabei können sie etwa über Twitter mittels Maus-zu-Maus-Propaganda viele Kunden für Marketingzwecke erreichen - nicht zuletzt durch positive Nachrichten."

We use this list of guidelines in our consultancy work. For best results, remember to interpret the guideline in context — this requires a bit more thought but ensures you will get a lot more from your review."
