shopping sites such as eBay and Amazon can be browsed with a whole range of different products, with home delivery from all across the world. even groceries can be shopped on the internet and delivered next day to your home. The only downfall with this is the fact of it causing laziness, how people no longer need to leave their homes in order to carry out every day tasks. The fact that you can do this via phone as well shows how quickly and efficiently the internet has developed for us. This isn't the only way at which people can interact with companies, for example, some companies such as coca cola include interactive games to play, which can grab the attention of the youth. They also have social network fan pages, such as coca cola's Facebook page. People whom "like" the page will receive news from the company frequently, and also, the fact that a person has liked the page, will inform their friends about the company's fan page's presence, and will likely also like the page, causing a big chain. This is an excellent method for a company to advertise, as many people use Facebook and other social websites.
There are many ways to communicate over the internet, and many I have already mentioned, but another is VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol). VOIP is phone services via the internet that allow people to talk over networks, and doesn’t cost as much (normally free). Unfortunately, VOIP is yet to support emergency calls such as 911 or phone directory listings, although is soon to be added.
IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is another thing that has been beneficial for most through the internet. IPTV is TV services over the internet that allows you to do much more, such as video on demand, meaning you can watch any program the providers can offer at any time, and rent movies for a small fee. Another feature is catch up TV, shows are saved and can be accessed in a few days in advance, this is beneficial as people who cannot reach the time at which their show is on can simply "catch-up" a few days after.
i Agree with what you have said here, Another way to use interaction with others is things such as Skype, this will allow you to speak via text or camera with friends and family all across the world.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you have said in this post. Face time is another easier way to communicate with greater interaction it allows you to see people visually as well.

ReplyDeleteGood points, although another way to use interaction with others is skype, you can transport files and communicate via text or video.
ReplyDeleteI have drawn the conclusion from these comments that i have missed out some key features from interaction with others via technology, such as skype, as it includes the key elements needed for great communication to others over the world, such as file sharing and voice mailing, let alone voice chat.
