"The all-inclusive properties of the online marketplace:" something i take advantage of very frequently. i am a current new member of e bay and have probably abused by bank account a little too much since being financially independent from my parents, but it's almost an addiction. E-commerce making its way into mainstream businesses has its beginnings in internet art and with the abilities of new computer needing less equipment, almost everyone has access to wireless internet and therefore, shopping. Although i never considered online shopping having anything to do with internet art, or art in general for that matter, it is interesting to finally realized why i have spent so much more money than i should have. advertising is obviously in the same realm of art, so it makes sense that internet art would close the gap between art and business, making it a major money making system and one of my favorite past times. this idea relates back to the communication idea from my previous blogs and how increase in communication equals the increase of productivity. with the increase in wireless, as well, more people are affected by this and can make their contribution to the economy right from their own home. although this may be a bad thing in my case, i think it is genius how retailers and sellers on e bay can reach so many people.
