抽象的な定義と比較しての例示の効果

Tim O'ReillyのWeb 2.0のCompact Definition
Web 2.0 is the network as platform, spanning all connected devices; Web 2.0 applications are those that make the most of the intrinsic advantages of that platform: delivering software as a continually-updated service that gets better the more people use it, consuming and remixing data from multiple sources, including individual users, while providing their own data and services in a form that allows remixing by others, creating network effects through an "architecture of participation," and going beyond the page metaphor of Web 1.0 to deliver rich user experiences.

・Does it make assumptions about who should care – i.e. are we explicitly or implicitly addressing technologists, business people or some other constituency?
