"Web 2.0 will die," wrote Peter Schwartz back at the beginning of December. "The universal social networks that are its public face cannot survive because they cannot propagate a sustainable user base willing to pay for its services." Sure, but the interesting question is when? What prompts this look is a post from Brian Kelly on server statistics. I still question the sharp rise of the Microsoft server, but looking at this chart prompts a more intriguing question: "Wait a minute. Google has a web server?" Oh, wait, it's just an Apache server. And the name change accounts for the entire decline in Apache server use (see especially the last diagram).
