Well ofcourse I know my site won’t even near web 2.0 but it’s always good to test and see where you stand.
Seem like I stand far off. 7/36.
This Web 2.0 validator is still in beta with 36 check list/rules. I’m not sure it’s a real validator or not cos’ some points are just silly but some are good points to note.

  • Uses inline AJAX ?
  • Is in public beta?
  • Uses python?
  • Uses the prefix “meta” or “micro”?
  • Is Shadows-aware ?
  • Uses Cascading Style Sheets?
  • Uses Google Maps API?
  • Refers to mash-ups ?
  • Attempts to be XHTML Strict ?
  • Appears to be web 3.0 ?
  • Mentions startup ?
  • Has favicon ?
  • Appears to use AJAX ?
  • Refers to the Web 2.0 Validator’s ruleset ?
  • Mentions Dave Legg ?
  • Makes reference to Technorati ?
  • Appears to be built using Ruby on Rails ?
  • Refers to VCs ?
  • Refers to Flickr ?
  • Mentions Nitro ?
  • Links Slashdot and Digg ?
  • Mentions Cool Words ?
  • Has prototype.js ?
  • Creative Commons license ?
  • Use Catalyst ?
  • Uses microformats ?
  • Actually mentions Web 2.0 ?
  • Refers to web2.0validator ?
  • Refers to del.icio.us ?
  • Refers to Rocketboom ?
  • Mentions RDF and the Semantic Web?
  • Validates as XHTML 1.1 ?
  • References isometric.sixsided.org?
  • Mentions 30 Second Rule and Web 2.0 ?
  • Appears to have Adsense ?
  • Uses the “blink” tag?

Believe me, I don’t understand/heard of some of those terms used in above check list. :(
But I could definitely improve my current point of 7 to a few more by doing these:
# Refers to web2.0validator
# Validates as XHTML 1.1
# Mentions 30 Second Rule and Web 2.0
# Mentions Cool Words (what the heck! like what?)
# Mentions Dave Legg (Ok… Dave Legg!!)
# Actually mentions Web 2.0 (Web 2.0, Web 2.0, Web 2.0)
