In this entry I will talk about the new product of Apple, as everybody knows Ipad.
Most of costumers are wondering about the new posibilities that Ipad provide them; but however, there is something that just a few people have realized, advertisement on Ipad.
The companies are great interested in inserting advertising in the iPad and in developing applications specially designed for the tablet of the company of the apple.
Let´s explain it in a deeper way; what at the first moment seemed just a new product, newer than old mobile phones or laptops, now may be could become in a huge source of incomes for the company. In fact, they could get a big amount of money from investors on advertisement. It´s well known that costumers have a really good feeling with the products of Apple, such as Ipod, Iphone and now probably Ipad.
Big companies are thinking of investing money in order to users of Ipad receive some adverts of their companies.
Let´s see what happen in next months, but apparently something is cThanging in the world of business online.
To sum up, we can´t forget that the first company that invest on this product is going to assume some big risks.

Censure on Facebook (or Twitter)
Surfing on the web, I have recently found an interesting article on Yahoo.com.
It takes about censure on social networks.
"An Islamic court of appeal confirmed the failure realized last week by the Association of the Moslem Brotherhood of Nigeria, which tries to censure the debate in the social networks on a case of amputation that took place 10 years ago." YAHOO.COM
A few days ago the news was that Facebook had censured photos of pregnant women, closing the accounts of the users that there were appearing.
Israel's hard assaults are not making Gaza impassive anybody. The manifestations repeat themselves to favor and in against, and in the network, Facebook is one more tool to show your support or rejection. Different groups, both of support and of rejection to the Israeli assaults they are noticing as Facebook's network it is censuring their contents.
Once we know those news, here is the question: Is Facebook being too strict with its censure policy?
There are lots of opinions for the absolutly freedom on social networks, on the other hand there are some ones against it.
Well, in my personal opinion, although we are in a modern world where we are supposed to be free, we can go everywhere whenever we want, I think that sometimes censure on social networks is beneficial for society, because lots of children are used, for example, to Facebook, and taking care of them is a social responsibility.
I will link a video that I think it will help to a better understanding of the topic.

Ebusiness problems
We are all agree about Ebusiness as an improvement in the marketplace. It makes faster, cheaper and most of times more efficient exchanges . Making exchanges possible through all over the world, its contributing to enhance international commerce.
But as everything in life, there are several negative points which we should not forget. That is the purpose of this entry, summarizing the disadvantages of E-Business.
Firstly, small companies are not using online commerce as often as bigger companies, its because of factors as desinformation, unqualified managers,etc.
In addition, high costs of maintenance and development make firms feel insecure with this sort of commerce. The E-Marketplace maintenance is about 500.000 euros each month.
On the other hand, some costumers still prefer a closer relationship rather than lower prices. When they have to make a complaint is always easier to deal with a small shop by face to face than online. Staying on this way, costumers are not able to see the product before the purchuase, so decision-making is harder.
Plorification of hacker and crackers, they could have acces to private information of the company, which would be really dangerous if other competitors get that information.
Although we have seen a few disadvantes, in my opinion E-commerce has helped to improve the economy, thats way every single firm should learn and develop it.

Nike online
Its well-known that Nike is one of the largest companies nowadays, however something is changing within its market strategy.
In the recent years, adverts from Nike have become really famous, that way Nike has a great reputation and fame. Celebrities such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Tiger Woods or Michel Jordan have taken part on that adverts.
Nike is using internet to expand itself, through sales online, they have increased their sales really fast, although its prices are still high.
In this point, I recently noticed about what the Marketing Manager of Nike said:
"We don't do advertising any more. We just do cool stuff. Its sounds a bit wanky, but thats just the way it is. Advertising is all about achieving awareness and we no longer need awareness.We need to become part of people´s lives and digital allows us to do that"
Its really hard to believe that Nike gives the advertisement up when that adverts made possible that Nike grew up incredibly fast. But if they are really thinking of operating just on internet, they should reconsider that idea in order to not losing the position which was so difficult to reach.
100 % online. I do not believe that it is the way for Nike.
Investing online, dedicating the budget in creating content and not paying means is a good strategy of digital approach.
But to trust only in " the buzz " is probably too risky. Principally for people who pay 200 euros for a pair of trainers, it wont be enough.
