why is it still beta under the name of the site? it's quite long now and the site seems to be complited. Or maybe there will be some changes that'll make gog final ver. Does anyone know anything?

because it hasn't been 2 years in and cd project is following web 2.0 rules.

It's 2009. Products leaving the beta stage are SO overrated.

Everything here is classy and smooth, even the beta, so don't worry about it.

dear lord I hope google doesn't buy it.

From the site's About Us page:
"As every self-respected website, in the era of Web 2.0, we have to carry out the beta for at least a year before we can launch the site. Unless you will act briefly and send us your feedback asap, we might think of launching the site earlier."

So what is inherently web 2.0 ??

Round buttons, fancy sans-serif fonts, lots of grey and black and white, etc.

This is. In other words, Web 2.0 implies that it's driven by its community.

To quote Wikipedia (a product of Web 2.0 itself):
"Web 2.0" refers to a perceived second generation of web development and design, that facilitates communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration on the World Wide Web. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities, hosted services, and applications; such as social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies.

"Web 2.0" is nothing but a meaningless buzzword. The vacuous definition that cogadh kindly posted from wikipedia demonstrates this quite well.

So it's basically another word for twitter? :D

Twitter is an entirely different magnitude of meaningless tripe.

Which is part of what makes it another great example of "Web 2.0"
