IMDB (The internet movie database) is a popular example of a Web 2.0 website. IMDB is a website containing information about past, present and future films, television programmes and celebrities (within reason). On the website you can find out who plays what characters in films and television programs. It also has an up and coming section on the website which shows the newest trailers for the latest films that will shortly be released. You can also find a must see list of films which are in the cinema, and can be very helpful if you are undecided between seeing two films. I find IMDB extremely helpful especially when I recognize a character but cannot remember where I have seen the person before thus why I regularly use IMDB.
Another positive to using this website is that you can download the IMDB app on a smartphone for usage of the website on the go.
There are a few downsides to IMDB, for example, not all films/television programs are on the website. Also another disadvantage of the website is that sometimes when an actor or actress isn’t well known, they do not have a picture with their name, which makes it difficult to connect the characters together.
