Web 2.0, UGC and Liverpoolfc.tv

Armin_Tamzarian · September 24, 2008

Way back in the day, the internet was pretty much a read only affair. That is, website creators made the pages and the end user searched, found and read them.

Course we all rode round on penny farthings and smote Wooly mammoths too. All that's changed now, though it does appear that wool smiting will never go out of fashion.

Now that's all changed. We're all like totally interactive. Every website has places you can leave comments, posts, pictures, videos or even tiny portions of your eternal soul.

It's not a phenomenon however till a marketing genius has created a buzz word about it. In this case there are 2, Web 2.0, the interweb reborn, and UGC or User Generated Content. Getting to grips with them has been one of the most interesting parts of my new job.

Liverpoolfc.tv are embracing the web 2.0 concept in a big way. In the spring there'll be video sharing, diy blogs, image galleries, comments or shout boxes on all the news stories, it will be so interactive that you'll hear a drum and bass soundtrack in your mind each time you think about it.

Which brings me to the purpose of this thread. We need a name for it. Something that sums it all up. Not KILLZONE BETA 4, that's been rejected It should be something LFC related really, being as that's the site on which it will reside and hopefully the team that most of the contributors will favour.

Anyone any ideas?
