November 12/19/2004 02:51 PM
American consumers spent $8.8 billion on Internet shopping in November, representing a 19 percent increase over one year ago and a 62 percent increase over November 2002 spending. According to an eSpending Report released by Goldman Sachs, & Co., Harris Interactive and Nielson/NetRatings, consumers spent the most on apprarel/clothing at $1.5 billion, followed by toys/video games (hardware and software) at $1 billion. The video/DVD category followed with $882 million and the books and music category rounded out the top five with $621 million and $481 million, respectively. Categories recording the highest growth in holiday dollars for November 2004 included toys/video games (hardware and software) with a 43 percent increase, videos/DVDs with a 39 percent increase and the music category with a 32 per cent increase. The eSpending Report is based on weekly surveys of more than 1,000 U.S. adult respondents and does not include money spent on travel purchases. In a separate report, Nielson/NetRatings said online consumers spent $919 million on travel in November 2004, an increase of 11 percent from a year earlier. Visits to online travel websites represented 46 per cent of all active Web surfing.

It wouldn't have taken special powers to predict that there would be even more online sales this year than last year on the day after Thanksgiving, so it's no surprise to hear that's exactly what happened. In the meantime, though, another study shows that many shoppers are afraid of scams and spam associated with buying online - and are much more willing to buy from trusted online vendors than smaller unknown vendors.

Lots Of Online Holiday Shopping... At
Work 12/24/2003 02:35 PM
There have been a ton of studies showing that lots of people did their holiday shopping online this year. However, the latest study has one other interesting factoid: the peak times for online shopping were during lunch times. In other words, people did their holiday online shopping at work during their lunch hour. Advertisers are beginning to notice this trend as well, and have been looking to buy targeted ads during the lunch time traffic rush. The article also mentions that some web filtering technologies for the workplace are now starting to wise up to the fact that some personal surfing from the office isn't such a bad idea, and will let employers "open up" access to shopping sites for some period of the day to keep them at their desk, rather than having them need to run out and do their shopping.

Fourteen Percent of Internet Users No Longer Donload Music Files
http://ww w.pewinternet.org/reports/toc.asp?Report=122

The recording industry campaign against those who download and swap music online has made an impact on several major fronts, but the number of Americans downloading music and sharing files online has increased, according to the most recent survey of the Pew Internet & American Life Project. The Project’s national phone survey of 1,371 adult Internet users conducted between February 3 and March 1, 2004 shows that 14% of online Americans say that at one time in their online lives they downloaded music files, but now they no longer do any downloading. That represents more than 17 million people. However, the number of people who say they download music files increased from an estimated 18 million to 23 million since the Project’s November-December 2003 survey. This increase is likely due to the combined effects of many people adopting new, paid download services and, in some cases, switching to lower-profile peer-to-peer file sharing applications.

Office Depot offers to recycle electronics for free: This is a Very Good Thing. I'm not an Earth-muffin or anything, but old electronics do some really crappy things to the environment.

Don't be so quick to toss out your old PCs, fax machines or digital cameras — office supply retailer Office Depot is offering to recycle one electronic product a day for free all through the summer, according to a published report Tuesday. [...]

The offer includes all brands of electronics, and products including computer monitors, digital cameras, copiers, fax machines, cellphones, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and TVs that are 27 inches or smaller, the report said.

"One product a day" means one product per person per day.

While the FBI may have arrested the guy who actually put some movie screeners online for download, the studios want to make sure the message is clear to all screener recipients that it doesn't care if them or their friends/relatives/acquaintances who put the movies online. So, the actor suing the actor Carmine Caridi, who supposedly passed on his screeners to a friend. They're suing him for $150,000 for each of the 3 movies that were identified as his that ended up online. While this probably makes the movie studios think they're making a point, it's unlikely to do much to slow down movies showing up online.
