Abstract	Web 2.0 technologies are online tools that allow users to share, collaborate and interact with one another. This small-scale project focused on young people's personal use of social media, and on the potential to use these tools to collect the views of young people and involve them in democracy in communities and local authorities. The main findings indicated that: (1) web 2.0 technologies were used extensively by young people for personal use and expressing opinions, although not all have equal access to it at home; (2) young people are confident and feel safe when using these tools; and (3) "cyber bullying" and malicious use of texts did exist but were rare. This report is important reading for local authorities, children's services practitioners and all those working with young people. (As Provided).
