Com 2.0: A path towards web communicating applications

Providing key architecture and components that allow users to produce their own communicating Web applications as easily as producing Web content for digital assets today would open new perspectives for communication actors and would increase potential connections by an order of magnitude. The end of the walled garden model in the telecommunication world leads to an ecosystem where the user interoperates more directly with the communication service providers to define services based, for example, on presence, address book, or instant messaging. Com 2.0 is to the communication world what Web 2.0 has been to the Web: a second perceived generation of communication services. Com 2.0 uses the Web as a platform for communication and thus enables a true convergence of communication, information, and entertainment in a way that turns the user into a communication service provider.
