I've been reading the threads on Web 2.0 with great interest, but I admit that I just didn't "get it" until a few days ago when my 15 year old son told me to check out a friends' page on MySpace. Suddenly a light went off and I began to understand the mis-mashed hodge-podge that I had previously looked down on as if it was not worthy to be taken seriously.

I own some popular sites that utilize user-generated content, user feedback rating, dynamically changing formatting, and other things that are generally regarded as the stuff of Web 2.0, but I just didn't understand the need for anything more. Now I do.

As I've been contemplating this for a few days, I'm wondering what a Web Directory 2.0 might look like?

I've read that doubleclick is Web 1.0 as AdSense is Web 2.0, and Geocities is Web 1.0 as MySpace is Web 2.0. I don't know if I should suggest that the DMOZ might be Web 1.0, but what would make a web directory Web 2.0?
