Many people are familiar with Richard’s personal blog, Read/Write Web where he’s been writing about Web 2.0, one of those phrases that has an intuitive ring to it, but still some disagreements on what exactly it means

Here are our latest BlogBridge topic expert’s recommendations on the best of the best on Web 2.0:

• TechCrunch: An excellent site that tracks Web 2.0 developments. It regularly profiles new Web 2.0 companies, making it a valuable resource. TechCrunch also has a weekly news feature called ‘Web 2.0 This Week’.
• John Battelle: One of the people behind the Web 2.0 Conference, from which the term ‘Web 2.0′ was derived. John’s blog is an essential source of news and analysis, particularly related to the big search companies.
• O’Reilly Radar O’Reilly Media is the company that coined the term ‘Web 2.0′ and they co-host the conference with Battelle. O’Reilly Radar is a group blog by some high profile O’Reilly staff and it’s a great source of developer news and trend analysis.
• Bokardo: Joshua Porter’s thought-provoking blog about Interface Design and Web 2.0. Joshua and I are co-writing a book for O’Reilly Media on (you guessed it!) Web 2.0.
• Designing for the Sandbox:
  
  Peter Merholz’s Web 2.0 blog about issues of openness, control, trust, authencity.
• Planet Web 2.0: Aggregates the weblogs of the Web 2.0 community. A firehose of information, but if you want wide coverage of Web 2.0, this is a useful feed to subscribe to.
• Read/Write Web: Can’t resist tooting my own horn My blog was the first to focus on Web 2.0, well before the term got hyped. One of the popular features of my blog is my ‘Web 2.0 Weekly Wrap-up’ - a weekly column in which I analyse the latest Web 2.0 news and trends. I also have a new ZDNet blog: Web 2.0 Explorer
