So, what is this Web 2.0 thing?
If you are confused about what Web 2.0 really is, don't worry, most everyone is. It is a broad category of web technologies that expand upon or improve upon the way the web used to be (hence being dubbed 2.0).
Wiktionary.com's Web 2.0 definition:
The second generation of the World Wide Web, especially the movement away from static webpages to dynamic and shareable content
Wikipedia's Web 2.0 entry includes:
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.
Both Wiktionary and Wikipedia are examples of Web 2.0.
Other common Web 2.0 examples:
eBay
Craigslist
Flickr
iTunes Music Store
MapQuest
Google Maps
Gmail

Is Anything Really Ever Free?
Yes, and no. Many valuable and effective marketing tools are themselves free or low cost.
Marketing is not the same as it used to be as evidenced by the continued downfall of traditional media such as newspapers and magazines whose primary revenue used to be advertising.
Blogs, email newsletters, social media sites, etc. can be extremely effective marketing tools.
The great news is that these things do not have the same sort of cost as traditional ads or commercials and can reach just as many, if not more, people. The only real cost to these solutions is in utilizing an expert to set these up for you and use them to their fullest potential.
So is marketing now completely free? Not exactly, but now, instead of paying most of your marketing budget for ad space, you can save money and still afford to hire the best talent to move your campaign forward.
