Customer Service 2.0 How Web 2.0 Technologies Enable a New Generation of Web Self-Service Platforms and Customers

 

Welcome to a Web 2.0 world, in which we are more connected, more available, and can more easily find and distribute information than ever before. However, the implications of Web 2.0 for customer service are enormous.
