Friendster? Socializr? This guy has a talent of coming up with the most generic Web 2.0-style names imaginable.

Friendster launched circa 2002; I don't have the etymology of "Web 2.0" committed to memory, but it's safe to say the silly naming really kicked in much later.

If anything, "Friendster" is what started that trend.
