Web Marketing Digest - March 4 2011

Mar. 04, 2011

This week's post is all about social media and shopping. It has a video on the popularity of Facebook, a report on e-commerce and an infographic on the rise of mobile shopping.

This video from Alex Trimpe shows the degree to which the world is "obsessed with Facebook." Thought you knew how much people use Facebook on a daily basis? This video may surprise you.

Forrester has released a new report showing that online shopping will keep on taking over in-store shopping, by providing loyal customers with brand knowledge (sizes, fits etc) with a more convenient way to purchase. You can read a full description of the report on Mashable here.

This infographic from Daily Infographic shows some interesting statistics on the popularity of mobile shopping. Is it more popular than you thought it was? Don't discount mobile as an important part of your online marketing strategy.

Also, for anyone who didn't hear, WikiLeaks has been nominated for the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize. What do you all think of that? Do you think they deserve to win? Or do you think they even deserve to be nominated along with the likes of Afghan rights activist Sima Samar and the European Union? We'd love to hear your thoughts.

Have a great weekend everyone!

I don't think that wikiLeaks deserve noble peace prize, coz it is not responsible for any kind of peace activities rather peace movement in our surrounding.
