Social commerce

Actually, I don’t use social commerce and don’t know well. But I heard and saw many social commerce advertisement and people’s experiences. It seems nice for all people who want to buy something because social commerce sites give the discount coupons. However, I got useful information from the presenters in this week. So I would like to write about merit and demerit of social commerce.

Most advantage is that we can buy something cheaply when using the social commerce compare with other shopping mall. It’s very good for people because most items price increased up so people also like this kinds of site. They also give various kinds of coupons such as restaurant, concert ticket and so on. We also can buy some items cheaply in a mall but it doesn’t give restaurant or museum ticket so many people use this sites. Moreover, another advantage is easy way. People can find coupons and other information about product by using the smart phone. We also able to compare price, taste of some restaurant with others. It’s definitely useful for people.

Despite the advantages, there is also disadvantages exists. Most social commerce sites register any seller with their partner without strict check or evaluation. It causes problems to buyer. Some sellers sold fake products like genuine. Like this situation, most people will be cheated by some sellers if social commerce don't make strict rules. Other problem is poor service. Some people want to use restaurant coupon but they were very disappointed because the restaurant were crowded so they have to wait and besides taste of food is not good and owner was unkind to customers.

As you read this social commerce is not perfect shopping way, nevertheless it’s so useful to the people because every item’s price increased except people’s income. I also will use social commerce. So we should use more reliable sites and social commerce sites also should make strict rules about product of sellers.    

Power bloggers

      Today, there are many bloggers write various kind of things on their blog. It is natural situation. Anyone can make their space on website if they join the blog or social network site. We can write any kinds of post because these sites are so personal space. We can post our interest, political opinion and so on. Actually, I also have my blog but I usually don’t write something although I got lots of information from other people’s blog.

Definitely, Blog is so useful to the people. We can get a lot of information from the blog. In my case, I usually search about music, sports, and movie. I found many things very easily from some blogs just tipping key word on search engine sites like Google. For example, I really like baseball and soccer but I don’t have enough time to watch all games because I recently busy. However, very kindly some power bloggers posted summarize of the match, records and even highlight videos. They also posted my favorite teams or players news. It’s so useful to me because that team is Spain team and of course I don’t know Spanish language.        

Even though, some useful side of blog there are bad effects of blog. I knew about it from the presenters. Some power bloggers post some company’s product. They praised and promoted that product then some people bought it after they read power bloggers post. They usually trust the power bloggers because blogger look like professional or early adopter. Most serious problem is that most power bloggers are amateur. They are not expert even if they know somewhat and have more information about their interests compare ordinary people.

Nevertheless, some problems of power bloggers most blog sites are useful. So we don’t have to believe easily some post. Also blog sites should be punished if their bloggers break the law or write illegal things. In addition, the Government should strengthen the internet regulations. I hope that no more people are deceived by some power bloggers.
