  11. Just Google It! • When Does a Noun Become a Verb? • When the noun is “Google” • Want to Find Particular Thingamajig? • Just GoogleIt! • Don’t think “thingamajig” is a word? • Then watch this THINGAMAJIG!

  12. Just Foogle It! • Want to Find the Cheapest One? • Just Foogle it, • Or Yahoo! it, • Or BizRate it, • Or NexTag it, • Or SearchEngineWatch it • To find more product search sites.

  13. Let’s Try It • I wanted to find a digital camera • I have an older Nikon camera • I decided to stay with that brand • Let’s do a product search using Google

  14. What Are Sponsor Links? • Notice the “Sponsor Links” on the top, bottom and right side. • This is one way Google makes money • Each time you click on a “Sponsor Link,” the sponsor pays Google • Sponsorship is no guarantee of a sound seller or a good deal

  15. Narrowing a Product Search • The search page header says: • Results 1 - 10 of about 4,000,000English pages for Nikon digital comers • Maybe we shouldrefine the search • Now we’re down to only 1,900,000 pages • These are pages, not camera models • Let’s check Nikon’s product line • Specifically, Digital Cameras

  16. Narrowing a Product Search • I want a small camera I can carry easily • I need at least 6 Megapixels • I have a black phone and like black • Lets check out the COOLPIX S50 • Here are the specifications

  17. Checking Product Reviews • Reviews of This Camera Are At: • Digital Camera Review • Digital Photography Review • Test Freaks • Digital Camera HQ • Many other sites

  18. I Love Everything but the Price • Slim, All-Metal, Matte-Black Body • 7.2 Megapixels for stunning prints • 3x Optical Zoom-Nikkor Glass Lens • Optical Vibration Reduction Image Stabilization • Huge, bright 3-inch high resolution LCD • Auto adjusts to keep shooting, even in low light • In-Camera Red-Eye Fix create stunning portraits • Pictmotion creates in-camera slide shows with music • MSRP: $299.95

  19. Let’s Do Price Comparisons • Nikon Coolpix S50 Camera • MSRP: $299.95 • Yahoo! Shopping • Froogle • BizRate • Amazon • Let’s play with Yahoo! Shopping

  20. Display and Sort Options • Show Grid View • Displays a grid rather than a list • Compare side by side • Shows selected (checked) items only • Sort criteria • Usually shows sort by relevance first • Sort by price - low-to-high or high-to-low

  21. Sorting by Price • Sorting low-to-high sometimes shows too many low-priced accessories • Walking through pages can be slow • Refining the search by price limits is often the best tactic • I know I won’t find one less than $100 • I won’t pay more than $300 • I set that price range

  22. Free-Riding the Web • I purchase on the Web very often • I have no fraud or privacy concerns • Yet, I didn’t buy the Nikon on the Web

  23. Free-Riding the Web • I wanted to: • See if the viewer was bright enough • Take some trial shots in the store • Compare S50 to my old Nikon • I bought it at the local Target store • It was on sale for under $200 • I could take it with me immediately • It had 90 day return privileges

  24. It’s All On The Web! • Free-Riding, Product Search and Price Comparisons Work for Many Products • Appliances • Furniture • Accessories • Apparel • Jewelry • Toys • Sporting Goods • Motor Vehicles • Boats • Services

  25. Free-Riding Retail Stores • Free-Riding Can Go Both Ways • Shoppers Visit Stores to: • Examine the goods • Handle the merchandise • Try on garments or shoes • Get information from sales staff • Then Go to the Web to Buy

  26. Consumers Love Coupons • Coupons can be obtained from: • Newspapers • Magazines • Catalogs • Postal mail • Supermarkets checkout counters • Dozens & dozens on Websites!

  28. Payment Through PayPal • PayPal is a way to pay for online purchases without risking somebody copying and using your credit card number

  29. Keeping Personal Data Secure • Never reveal your social security number online • Don’t provide your credit card number unless you are familiar with the seller • Don’t furnish information unless confident of the party soliciting it • Use PayPal or other financial transaction intermediaries

  30. Be Aware of Phishing • Phishing • (fish´ing) (n.) The act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. (source: webopedia) • Don’t open or reply to such messages

  31. Keeping Personal Data Secure • Follow responsible guidelines for online financial transactions • USBank • Yahoo! Security Center • Microsoft Security at Home • Citybank

  32. What You Might Not Know • Online marketers may track your visits, clicks, coming and going • Data provided at “registration” may be stored, merged, sold or traded • Your computers IP address is like a ID number for your computer • Linking to sites from email may provide your email address

  33. Tracking Online Shoppers • Online marketers may record: • If you have been at the site before • If you have purchased before • What and when • How you came to the site • From an email ad, search site, etc. • The contents of your “shopping basket” • What you put in, deleted, and left there

  34. Be Your Own Identity Thief • Establish multiple email names and addressed -- they’re often free • Use pseudonyms or variations of your first, middle initial and last name • Establish a dedicated checking account or credit card for online payments • Open an account at a private postal service location
