Abstract
The website of the ETSIIT (ETS de Ingenierías de Informática y de Telecomunicaciones) of the University of Granada has been built following the web 2.0 principles. This work shows its main features, services and technical specifications making visible the high level of interaction offered to the users.
This website has been evolving for all this time to incorporate the new standards and technologies that have been appearing among the last 12 years. Continuously, new services have been added to the platform and the existing ones have been improved or remade. This platform is an experimental environment to develop and deploy new ideas or technologies. This continuous research generates an important know-how that has been applied in several projects for other websites of the University of Granada.
