Shop Offline, Buy Online


Shop Offline, Buy Online 12/08/2003 03:34 PM
It looks like the rest of the world is catching up with me. For years, now, my method for buying new books is to go into a bookstore and browse randomly until I found something interesting. I'd flip through the book a little and if it looked good, I'd jot down the name of the book. Later on, I'd look the book up online and see what sort of reviews it received, and then decide whether or not to buy it online. I did the same thing with the last car I bought - test driving at various dealers before making the final purchase online. For years, this was backwards of what most people did. They would research items online first, and then go buy at a shop. However, it appears that I'm not so much of an oddity any more. The latest study shows that many more people are resea rching in stores, but then going to the web to buy. I wonder if there will be a backlash against such in-store browsing. I recently heard about a shoe store that is telling people if they try on a shoe but don't buy it, the store will charge a $30 fee. They did this because people kept coming in and trying on shoes until they found ones that fit, and then went online to buy them instead. This seems a bit draconian, and unlikely to win many fans (or shoppers!), but it does suggest some of the tactics that brick-and-mortar shops may eventually adopt.

New Study Says People Not Afraid To Shop
Online
05/10/2004 01:30 PM
It was just last week (wasn't it?) that we had a study (paid for by a company that wanted to provide secure transaction software) saying that people were going to shop less online due to fear of fraud and scams like phishing (which have nothing to do with shopping online). This week, thanks to some research paid for by PayPal/eBay we have a study saying exactly the opposite. It turns out, according to this study, that the increase in stories about these scams means that shoppers are much more sophisticated and careful about buying online, but they're planning to buy more and many feel the internet is much safer for shopping these days. In other words, you can't trust either study as both are impossibly biased by the money that paid for them.

Last year, people ripped me to shreds for mentioning there were times that I would window shop in a store, but eventually buy online. Well, if that's as evil as people made it out to be, it appears I'm in some good company. A new study says that nearly 70% of people now admit to doing some offline browsing, before purchasing online. The thing is, to me, it's no different than comparison shopping offline. If I'm looking to buy something, I may visit a few stores offline before finding a reasonable deal. Sometimes, a store will immediately offer a good enough deal, or a level of convenience or additional value that it's worth buying right away -- and sometimes not. Sites online are just one more place to comparison shop. At the same time, the reverse is true as well in some cases. There are plenty of times I've researched products online before buying locally at a store. Either way, it's clear that most people now have no qualms looking for the deal that makes the most sense for them, whether it's on or offline -- and both sides need to learn to deal with that.

Look At That: There Are Women Online Too


Look At That: There Are Women Online Too 04/29/2004 02:42 PM
Not quite sure that this is really all that surprising, but Yahoo! has put together a study (mainly targeted at their advertisers) pointing out that women actually use the internet too. In fact, it's the "leading media of choice" among women, and overall comes only after work, sleep, and spending time with family as being the most important time spent. The study notes that women use the internet at work, and are good at multitasking - having work-related and non-work-related sites open at the same time and flipping back and forth between the two. They found that women believe surfing non-work sites at work is fine, since they tend to do more work outside of the office as well - and they're also spending more time at the office. The folks at Yahoo! seem positively shocked that women (gasp!) actually use search as well. "The other thing that I think that was a revelation [for us] and that has been a common consensus is that women are task-oriented, but this research shows that they do use the Internet for searching and browsing--it's not just for destination-related activities." And to think, before this, Yahoo! apparently thought that only men used search. Maybe all the women have been over at Google...

Online Marketers Try To Understand Women


Online Marketers Try To Understand Women 05/05/2004 12:04 AM
Amazing. Last week we joked about Yahoo realizi ng that women use the internet too, and now Salon has an article on the same conference looking at exactly how to market to women online. In both cases the conference comes off as this sort of stunning world where it turns out to be a surprise that women actually use the internet. Why is this so shocking? Even more to the point, why is it so surprising that you can't classify all women into a single group? Did marketers really assume that all women only went online to research cleaning products? It's pretty sad that a conference was needed to explain all this, and it will be even sadder watching these same marketers try to take these "lessons" and turn them into new advertisements for women. At the end of the Salon article there's quite a telling quote. A young woman is asked: "How do you feel about Yahoo trying to get into your life?" She responds: "They pay you enough, and you don't care." Welcome to the internet. Advertising isn't about intrusiveness and annoying people, it's about giving people something of value - whether monetarily or otherwise.

Biggest Online Gamers? Women Over 40


Biggest Online Gamers? Women Over 40 02/10/2004 09:17 PM
While the general impression most people have of online gamers is teenaged boys shooting each other in digitized worlds, it turns out that it's women over the age of 40 who spend the most time playing online games. The women who regularly play video games say it takes away from other activities such as "watching TV or movies, reading or being physically active." Even more interesting, those women gamers are night owls. Over 25% are found online between midnight and 5am. Of course, as you might guess, the type of games played tend more towards puzzle and word games, but it still might not be what you'd expect. So, forget the early 20s male gamer, when do we see sponsorship opportunities for the over 40 female gamers?

Eager for Subversion


Eager for Subversion 09/23/2004 10:03 PM
I’ve been using CVS for a long time—and sometimes I feel like Gus Mueller (now mar ried!) when he wrote the immortal line Die CVS die.

One item—MacDevCenter on Making the Jump to Subversion—has been staring at me every day since August. I can’t actually make the jump until after finishing the NetNewsWire and MarsEdit releases, but I sure am eager.

I’ve heard from reliable sources that not only does Subversion solve some of the annoyances with CVS, it also makes peppers taste hotter and the sun shine brighter.
