What did you think of them?

Somethings you might want to address: how does knowing this affect your personal use of social media and/or the internet, how might knowing this affect your use of social media as entertainment, do you have ideas about the ethics of this, and/or other things i haven't listed.

 

Do you use EWOM to pick products to buy, what to watch or listen to, place to go etc...?

Shockley, I do utilize electronic word of mouth(EWOM) to purchase all of my online products from unfamiliar ecommerce sources to ensure the quality is worth the wait to receive the product with out physically touching the security camera , for example.   

Do you feel more influenced by celebrities, social media stars, or your friends and family members' opinions?

I noticed that my concern of obtaining faulty items influenced my curiosity to seek these charitable services from family members to support their journey in life, to have a deeper understanding of how the product values aligned with my family members company's ethical ideals of "high quality product service." Other people's experiences on YouTube with the number of views had to be reliable and have an emotional beneficial influence on myself and social wellness. For me to participate in web-based technologies because they have created numerous opportunities for electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) communication on YouTube, the product must be a phenomenon that has influenced the vast majority of positive reviews from online social media users and retailers in the past. But since it is for my family, I usually buy their homemade products such as, candles, paintings, glass sculptures and other edible products to support their financial calling in life.

What are your thoughts about the social media ecosystem?

My observations on the social media ecosystem concentrate at how technology may help individual consumers follow current trends. Researchers and market analysis data technologists collaborate with large corporations to benefit from using intelligent marketing messaging, community telecommunications platforms, and the influence of others' opinions on the current product to purchase more products. Creating a buyer-seller cycle that never ends. Every second, billions of connections of eager social media users search for the next trend to debate, developing a "blackhole" marketing artificial intelligence strategy system. As technology progresses tremendously in the next years, these linkages encourage relationships, resulting in a massive social network ecological loop that no one can stop.
