Shopping in the Information Age
The process of buying things has drastically changed since the Internet became a common communication tool.
The Internet can do a whole lot more than just allow you to make the physical purchase and as the mobile revolution continues to expand, it's adding value to the shopping experience as well.
Whether you plan to shop online for all or none of your holiday gifts, this week's show is focused on providing everyone with tools and resources that can reduce the amount of time and the amount you pay when making that next purchase.
Listen-in as the Data Doctors discuss some of the latest websites and mobile apps that can change the way you shop for just about everything!
