Ok so today I found out about TagWorld. And I got thinking this is pretty cool. But then reality struck. I already have a blog, I already have a flickr account, why would I want to manually move all my images and posts to the latest and greatest system. I mean I am part programmer, therefore I am inherantly lazy. I would rather script something to do the job in a fraction of the time than do it manually.

This leads me to what I think next gen web apps will really need. Or at least will define the better ones from the crowd. Once a product has an exstablished user base a newer product has to lure the users away from that product and onto thiers. So something has to make this transition easy and painless to really make inroads.

I also read an interesting article today but the best bit was probably in the second comment (not mine). Dan explained how most of these apps are getting thier strange names. "The fundamental problem is that every domain name you can imagine is taken".

Step 1.
Get a freaky Web 2.0 standards compliant name: Doodiedo.com

Step 2.
Come up with a web based app that organises you doo-hackeries into a new drag and drop realtime thingee-ma-bob.

Step 3. (this is the new one)
Create and importing wizard to bring all your other Web 2.0 web information into doodiedo.com
Infact doodiedo could even just be an app for moving your Web 2.0 info round all the latest and greatest apps out there.

So get out there making you Web 2.0 doo-hickeries but just remember if you want a little market share remember your doodiedo’s.
