What is Web 2.0?

-
I know the article is too late. We are done with all type of definitions and I am now talking about it.

I planned to write a five second explanation is because I keep bumping into this question and believe me there are numerous definitions poured on the person asking this question and he is looked upon as if he does not know what internet is but finally in the end of the discussion the person asking the question still does not have the answer.

Even I came to know the answer pretty late and after some drilling on internet for the definition.

Here's my take on it:

Although the term Web 2.0 suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to new technology but rather to cumulative changes in the ways software developers and end-users use the Web


World Wide Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee clarifies, "I think Web 2.0 is, of course, a piece of jargon; nobody even knows what it means. If Web 2.0 for you is blogs and wikis, then that is 'people to people.' But that was what the Web was supposed to be all along. The Web was designed to be a collaborative space where people can interact."

In short, Web 2.0 isn’t new technology; it’s an emerging usage pattern.

Hibernate: a different object with the same identifier value was already associated with the session

People working with Hibernate might be familiar with the below error. org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateSystemException: a different object with the same identifier value was already associated with the session: nested exception is org.hibernate.NonUniqueObjectException: a different object with the same identifier value was already associated with the session This exception is generated when we try to load an instance object in session which has been already loaded by hibernate. Easier said than done. Hibernate considers two persistent entities identical if the two rows of the table can be said identical. Above error could be generated in many ways and there may be various solutions on net like using session merge etc to get away with the problem. I will discuss here the reason for me getting this problem and the way I resolved it. Below is the code which generated the exception for me. Following is the method which caused the exception @Transactional(propagation=Propagation.
