The Big List of Web 2.0 Companies

You'll find a list of Web 2.0 companies/sites below (although there are some 1.0 ones as well), organized by category. It's still preliminary, but I plan on putting short blurbs next to each site over time. I just started compiling it to keep track of all the companies that I see popping up everyday. Not so surprisingly, I tend to forget most of them after a day or so, so the list refreshes my memory in case I need to point to competitors or compare a new site to an existing one.

A prettier visualization of Web 2.0 sites is available at Go2Web2.0 maintained by Orli Yakuel.

This list will be continually updated.
