=== Web 2.0 === In 2003, after the [[Dot-com bubble|dot com bust]], O'Reilly Media's corporate goal was to reignite enthusiasm in the computer industry. Dale Dougherty, an executive at O'Reilly, invoked the phrase "Web 2.0" during a brainstorming session.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://computer.howstuffworks.com/web-20.htm|title=How Web 2.0 Works|work=HowStuffWorks|date=28 December 2007|access-date=1 May 2016|archive-date=17 February 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150217030750/http://computer.howstuffworks.com/web-20.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> Though O'Reilly is often credited with popularizing the phrase Web 2.0, it originated with [[Darcy DiNucci]], who coined the term in 1999.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://darcyd.com/fragmented_future.pdf |last=DiNucci |first=Darcy |title=Fragmented Future |format=PDF|volume=53 |issue=4 |pages=221β222 |access-date=2 August 2019 |archive-date=10 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111110143942/http://darcyd.com/fragmented_future.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref> O'Reilly went on to popularize the phrase as a handle for the resurgence of the web after the [[Dot-com bubble|dotcom crash]] of 2000, and as a generic term for the "harnessing of [[collective intelligence]]" viewed as the hallmark of this resurgence. O'Reilly first called an "executive conference" in 2004,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.web2con.com/web2con/ |work=Web2con |title=Web 2.0 Conference |year=2004 |url-status=unfit |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080913174125/http://www.web2con.com/web2con/ |archive-date=13 September 2008 }}</ref> inviting five hundred technology and business leaders, followed by a public version of the event in 2005. Annual iterations of the event, known as the "[[Web 2.0 Summit]]" from 2006 onwards, continued until 2011. O'Reilly and employees of O'Reilly Media have applied the "2.0" concept to conferences in publishing and government, amongst other things.<ref>{{Cite journal | volume = 2| issue = 1 75| pages = 53β84| last = Turner| first = Fred|author2=Christine Larson| title = Network Celebrity: Entrepreneurship and the New Public Intellectuals| journal = Public Culture| date = 1 January 2015| doi = 10.1215/08992363-2798343}}</ref> O'Reilly envisions the [[Internet Operating System]]<ref name=StateOS>{{cite web|last=O'Reilly|first=Tim|title=The State of the Internet Operating System|url=http://radar.oreilly.com/2010/03/state-of-internet-operating-system.html|work=radar.oreilly.com|access-date=25 August 2011}}</ref> as consisting of various sub systems, such as media, payment, speech recognition, location, and identity.
