Actually, I can live without most Web 2.0 products

Useful article on TechCrunch re "Web 2.0" products that are "couldn't live without" for the connected user of today. What is interesting is that it is a 2006 to 2008 progression:

I guess what is interesting to me is that my subset is much, much smaller.....Skype, Firefox (and Thunderbird), Del.icio.us, Technorati pretty much are the work subsystems. Yahoo is my RSS aggregator, Techmeme my "tech meme" aggregator. Pandora, YouTube and the BBC I use for media feeding.

But the bulk of my time is still spent with Web 1.0 and Web 0.0 stuff - Email, Open Office, IM etc

Update.....realised that TC is counting blogging software as Web 2.0, so I would also include Serendipity (Open Source software used for Broadstuff) and Drupal (Website software for Broadsight and also our back end CMS)

Update the second - oh yes...Broadstuff is Broadcast via Twitter, Jaiku, Facebook, Feedburner etc - but those are just current channels rather than an application we can't live without.
