Shopping 2.0 - I know what you bought.

In the U.S., a huge potential prospects while in Germany still dominate the biggest supporters: It is about the collaborative shopping on the web 2.0. Can now be even news, moods and Geo-information (places) divided, this is still unusual for purchases.

The idea is simple: Take the credit card or special connectors to shops will be ensured that every purchase is published in the profile. When did I find out what purchased at what price. In the best Facebook-style shopping can be friends (in the social media sense) are commented on and evaluated. I like it.
A service that is exactly the possible blippy.com .
I know what you just bought.

(. Overall, this profession is not currently very well easily)

course, not everyone wants that for half the world - at least on a "Friends" - purchases are set out transparent. One or the other would not even for themselves such transparency. can offer -

Nevertheless is clear what value such a service - especially in combination with other services. Of course, but also the concerns can not be dismissed out of hand. Interesting way, is the frequently expressed compared with loyalty programs such as Payback: If I impart to it an organization and the data are thus open to individuals, I would rather take control and manage and control the dissemination of these data. A little bit of sovereignty - and therefore responsibility - over their own data also.

We should be excited in each case that is certain is that we are just beginning to come to the end and this term probably should also finally be deleted from our vocabulary.
