Generally many of these are from the professional type publications and are refereed (written by experts in their field). Databases as referred to here are the ones used for research. I think this misunderstanding is KEY to why students and teachers don’t use them as much as they should. They don’t understand the word ‘Database.” Thanks for the comment and question!

I do not feel that databases, at least as I know them, are not web 2.0. When I think of a database I think of a phone book. This is a database but it is not very interactive and interactivity is one of the “powers” of the web. Am I wrong. If so, please straighten me out.
