Do we?
I'd rather see you come up with new points (not 
covered by earlier discussions in this list) as 
to why the term "Web 2.0" should be used despite 
its unclear definition and historically incorrect 
suggestion that the Web's development is 
revolutionary rather than evolutionary.
Imho "2.0" is merely a rhetorical trick. Not 
useful, rather harmful. Consider "Music 2.0", 
"USA 2.0", "aoir 2.0", "Garthwaite 2.0"...
