I don't think Smartphones will ever replace TV, tablets-maybe, The quality of Smartphones in respect of audio quality and screen size! Maybe partially, in certain situations where a TV is not possible- Travel for example, great for in the plane.

I think creating brand recognition is on of the most important things for a brand, but so is meeting user needs. Therefore, a balance between the two concepts should always be the aim. However, it is difficult for some brands to understand what their users need, like, want so they assume and build a website that may or may not work on consumer needs level. Therefore, more target group understanding is needed (assuming that the brand recongnition aspect is on point) and then incorporating that into the design.

I believe if an animal is suffering and there is nothing, absolutely nothing, a doctor can do about it, the humane thing to do is to perform euthanasia!

I think it offers the same as normal fitness establishments, as long as one knows what they are doing and how to train properly so they don't hurt themselves.

Although I believe that the print media will lower its output, I don't believe it will disappear. There is something about holding a paper magazine, newspaper etc. Although Ilike reading paper books and magazines better than digital I find it easier to look for specific information on digital editions. I will, however, never trade the magazines I like for digital versions.

I think hard copies will still be there, possibly as a luxury good.

I believe everyone is entitled to privacy, as long as they are a law-abiding citizen. The government has no right to put their nose is absolutely everyone's business. It's such a complicated question to answer, though. I see value in both side, but do stand more to what I stated above

I think the benefits are far less that the positives. In order for this process to yield any real benefits, the bad effects it has (pollution, health hazards etc) must be taken down to minimum. The greener energy that shale gas provides will be 'defeated' by the environmental pollution the extracting causes, which has more detrimental effects globally than using shale gas has benefits.

I think it is a very string 'weapon' in this respect. If all major corporation took it upon themselves to lower the environmental impact they have, then the crisis will be at least 'put on hold' and then the efforts to 'fix it' will be much more successful. A company like Nutreco, who produce animal and fish feeds, are an example that I know of who invest a lot in sustainability. Being the one of the worlds largest feed producers, they not only put plans of action in place to producing it in a environmentally friendly way, but develop strategies for amelioration of the regions they work in. This is a good example of what I mean.

I think it may aid in some aspects, to form a negative image. All those bad biker boys with tattooed arms...But at the same time, this creates negativity with a certain type of people, not all. I think the body art alone is not enough to put a negative connotation, it is the type of person that wears it.

I am actually on the fence. I tend to disagree a tiny bit more because I think the things we post on our profiles shows, impassively, what kind of people we are. Although I do not think that is true always, it can show certain traits of our personalities. That may be useful for an employer to know.

I think it is an advantage in today's business world. With the globalization, being exposed to different cultures in a study environment is very beneficial because you get to know the people in professional but also in personal situations.

I think these commercials are useful for a certain type of massage. I think they can be useful as a 'first stage' tool, creating the buzz and then the additional, full campaign starts. They might work for a combination of low and high involvement products, like smartphone. I recently saw a phone ad (don't remember which company) on YouTube. It was very short, 6 sec or less, but the way it was made was very smart and I see how people will want to check the phone out. The stipulated that the phone is quicker than the time you need to press skip, and just before the skip became available, the commercial ended. Very original and these type of uses and creative ideas are what can make vine-like ads valuable.

I don't think it builds the same relationships as before. There are certain things about a person when you see them face-to-face: expression, tone of voice, energy etc., that you cannot feel via text so Social Media. However, I think the extent to which the relation is deepened depends on how open are the two people communicating.

I almost never believe the advertisements. I rely on company reputation to make a choice is it is a truthful advert. I would only believe in such a product if it is a recommendation from someone I know is knowledgeable on the subject of nutrition and is a friend.

I don;t think it will lead to the extinction of shops. There will always be a part of commerce that is better sold in physical shop than online. Furthermore, shopping is seen as anti-stress activity or an activity that you do with your friends and family. It is not so much the act of shopping as it is the act of doing something together or a bonding activity.

Of course who you work for matters, but branding yourself can be done while excluding the company you work for. I don't think, even if you use the company you work as part of your branding, it will bring negativity in case of changing work place. There is a way to handle it and turn it into a plus, in case the company you leave is a big part of your personal branding strategy.

The inaccuracies come from eagerness to stay up to date or before everyone else. The news media are so eager to push content out that they are willing to sacrifice credibility. On the other hand, it is really easy for them to post additional updates as they learn more and more. I think this has evolved into a totally new journalism type.

I am actually on the fence. I believe that food should be produced naturally, without genetically modifying it, but at the same time, humanity has introduced many new substances in the air and earth that affect our food and us as well. If GMO aim at addressing these issues, then I am all in. I can see the benefits in using it.

Unfortunately, my perception is that they are mostly used for price benefits and the technology is still unable to make them perfectly safe for us.

This is why I am leaning more towards forbidding them.

I defiantly think it has had more positive than negative effect. It has made it possible for shy people, for example, to meet potential partners and present themselves the way they really are, when the pressure is not there.

I live in country where prostitution is legal and it has brought many benefits. It is easier to monitor illegal activities connected with the job and the government benefits from taxes. The girls benefit too as they can afford to get a mortgage, for example. They also don't need to get involved with dangerous types in order to earn more money and are very protected against anybody who wants to hurt them (take their money).

I think it should be used to look for criminals. Maybe not all criminals, the ones that have committed the most serious of crimes.

One of the most positive sides of Social Media is the reach it has and the quick dissemination of the message. Public lynching is of course quite unacceptable but vigilantes are rare and if such messages address the most serious of criminals then the chance of such and event is lowered to a minimum.

I don't think it is moral to put up a service that enables people's weaknesses or even pushes them to infidelity.

At the sane time, I do agree that the choice is ultimately with the consumer. However, I believe some people, maybe in the spur of the moment, can be tempted to use Second Love.

I don't think it is appropriate to also promote this type of service. It has been allowed on all media for about two years now, I think. I was shocked when I first saw it. There has always been a similar service in every society, on the down-low, but Second Love went to a whole other level and made is extremely easy for everybody. Not right.

I don't believe they lose their authenticity if they are branded. A handcraft will always be a handcraft, it came out under someone hands. I can see how it can have a negative effect, if a handcraft is not advertised as such, though. I think the real issue is in people's perception of the product ( if it has a brand it is mass-produced or they are lying about it being handcrafted).

I think a good strategy may be to keep the brand small, with clear 'authentic' look, feel and personality. The clearer the communication that this is a unique handcraft, the better the authentic factor will be kept.

I definitely spend more time than I want to. It has gone to the point that a 'relaxing evening at home' is defined as 'an evening on the internet'. Which is sad. At the same time, I believe the internet opened a lot of new doors for everybody. It allows us to acquire information and knowledge that we previously had no way of having (unless we travel and so on). The positives outweigh the negatives, for me.

As for privacy, I guess it is an issue, and we are forced to dispose more than we think. But it also makes us more connected. There are ways to moderate the amount of information people see. One being, don't put things on Facebook that you don;t want everyone to see.
