Portfolios, New Again!
Portfolios, new again! Portfolios are now again a method of illustrating the knowledge and competencies of the author, but Web 2.0 has changed how they are created and shared. Web 2.0 applications now allow the creation and updating of portfolios as an entirely new process, easy and fast. Also the sharing of the contents is extended beyond what paper copies ever could.
