Fx Effect Generator

The Effect Generator is whole new way of creating Flash content online for free, within a simple but powerful what-you-see-is-what-you-get drag-and-drop graphical editing environment. You can simply click and drag what different shapes, effects, colors and etc. You can also go into a separate part and write the individual coding for the shapes, colors and actions that your effect is going to take. Its a pretty high quality online program that anyone can access through their Internet. I think that if used correctly this Effect Generator can be utilized by anyone.

What is Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 is like web applications that provdide interactive information sharing, and different information sharing through the different users, and communication on the World Wide Web. Examples of Web 2.0 include web-based communities, hosted services, web applications, social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, mashups, and folksonomies. A Web 2.0 site allows its users to interact with other users or to change website content, in contrast to non-interactive websites where users are limited to the passive viewing of information that is provided to them. With Web 2.0 people get more priveleges with what theyre on vs the regular site permissions and limitations.
