According to Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary, privacy means freedom from unauthorized intrusion. When applied to the Internet, having privacy indicates the ability to control what information one reveals about oneself over the Internet, and to control who can access that information whether with or without one’s knowing. Since its inception in 1969, Internet has reached more than 1 billion people. With Internet’s profound social influences, Internet privacy has become one of the major concerns of every savvy web surfer. In this talk, we pinpoint the important privacy risks facing Internet users. We examine some notorious privacy cases and discuss the lessons to be learned. Finally, we suggest what all the stakeholders (the government, the Internet Service Provider, the company, and each individual) can do to make Internet a more safe and secure place to go.

Web 2.0 has become a major technology that supports content publishing over the Internet. Web 2.0 refers to an expected second generation of Web technology that allows people to create, publish, exchange, share, and cooperate on information (knowledge) in a new way of communication and collaboration. The Web 2.0 technology makes the Web not only for browsing, but also for creating and sharing. The success of Web 2.0 heavily relies on interactive communication and collaboration among people over the Internet -- where are the people; what people possess; whether people are willing to communicate; how a group of people can be formed as communities of practice; and how people can work together trough new generation of interactive social software such as Wikis, Blogs, RSS feeds, video podcast, Ajax-based browsers, peer-to-peer, instant messenger, and other social networking software. Some successful examples of Web 2.0 applications are Wikipedia, YouTube, MySpace, and Flickr. The Web 2.0 is shifting economical value of the Web to new business models for the next generation of Web technologies and interactive e-learning.
One of the essential goals of applying Web 2.0 technologies to e-learning is to enhance interactive communication and collaboration among participants on the Web-based learning. By participants, we refer to the learners who either possess related learning information, or can help to discover and obtain the information, or are willing to exchange and share information with others. In Web 2.0, learners are co-learners as well as co-authors. They can read and write to the Web, in which learners become the consumers and producers of content and services. As a result, the critical challenges of Web 2.0 for interactive e-learning is how to identify the right co-learners, find the right content, provide the right services, and through the right user interfaces to facilitate the interactive communication and collaboration in e-learning domains.
