Web 2.0 Summit: Platforms, Services, And Audiences Coming Your WayWeb 2.0 Summit: Platforms, Services, And Audiences Coming Your Way

Now in its fourth year, the Web 2.0 Summit has moved past trying to define what Web 2.0 is and isn't. Looking ahead to the conference, here are the concepts and issues I most want discussed at the show:1. Platforms. We have Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Adobe, and ebay (among others) here to discuss their platforms and encourage other companies and individuals to build on top of these platforms. Very little has been said about the progress Amazon has made with its WebOS initiative.

Oh, and there is a guy named Rupert that people are expecting to say a thing or two about platforms and MySpace's future.
