Slijedim prijatelje<br />
Following my Friends<br />
Jedna slika vrijedi tisuću riječi, a<br />
fotografije prijatelja s ljetovanja na<br />
Facebook stranicama najbolja su<br />
reklama<br />
Facebook ne samo da pomaže ljudima da ostanu u<br />
kontaktu nego ih nadahnjuje za putovanja, otkrio<br />
je nedavno Skyscanner. Dakle, više uopće ne treba<br />
postavljati pitanje trebate li ili ne napraviti profil na<br />
društvenim mrežama - naravno da trebate (ako ga još<br />
nemate)! Jednostavno zato jer se na Facebooku sve<br />
“događa”, i svi su “online” - od učenika i studenata,<br />
vlasnika firmi, direktora i njihovih zaposlenika, do<br />
domaćica i umirovljenika. A mnogi od njih, naravno,<br />
putuju pa tako značajan broj turista svoju inspiraciju za<br />
putovanja pronalaze upravo na Facebooku.<br />
Ova najpopularnija društvena mreža ima više od<br />
1.300.000 aktivnih korisnika u Hrvatskoj i više od 500<br />
milijuna u svijetu! Ignorirajte te brojke ako ste toliko<br />
hrabri.<br />
Facebook odavno nije samo mjesto gdje ljudi “gube<br />
vrijeme” i “lajkaju” statuse. To je mjesto gdje se ljudi<br />
druže, donose odluke, pa čak i organiziraju revolucije!<br />
I zaista, prema istraživanju Skyscannera, čak se 52<br />
posto ljudi pod utjecajem fotografija svojih prijatelja<br />
na Facebooku, odlučuje za bukiranje svog putovanja,<br />
čak 88 posto korisnika voli “njuškati” po fotkama svojih<br />
prijatelja kako bi vidjeli gdje su bili i što su radili, njih<br />
46 posto je odgovorilo da upravo putem Facebooka<br />
planiraju svoje putovanje s drugima, a 45 posto<br />
ispitanika smatra da ih upravo Facebook ohrabruje da<br />
posjete svoje prijatelje u inozemstvu.<br />
Pa sada vi recite da moderne tehnologije otuđuju<br />
ljude! Ulogirajte se, provjerite tko je gdje bio, pa<br />
možda i vi dobijete inspiraciju za svoje sljedeće<br />
putovanje.<br />
I svakako uploadajte svoje fotografije iz Rovinja.<br />
A picture is worth a thousand words,<br />
and the vacation photographs of<br />
your friends on Facebook are the best<br />
promotion<br />
Facebook not only helps people remain in contact,<br />
but also inspires them to travel, Skyscanner’s study<br />
recently showed. Therefore, you can stop asking<br />
yourself whether you should create a profile on one<br />
of the social networks, because the answer is - of<br />
course you should (if you have not created one yet)!<br />
The reason is simple - on Facebook, everything<br />
is “on” and everyone is online - high school and<br />
university students, company owners, directors and<br />
their employees, as well as company owners and<br />
retirees. Many of them, of course, travel, so there is a<br />
significant number of tourists that find inspiration for<br />
travelling on Facebook. This popular social network has<br />
more than 1,300,000 users in Croatia and more than<br />
500 million active users in the world! Try and ignore<br />
the numbers if you are brave enough.<br />
It is long since Facebook has been a place where<br />
people “waste their time” and “like” other people’s<br />
statuses. This is the place where people hang out,<br />
make decisions, and even organize revolutions!<br />
Skyscanner’s research has shown that as much as 52<br />
per cent of people decide to book a trip under the<br />
influence of their Facebook friends, and as much as 88<br />
per cent of Facebook users like to browse the photos<br />
of their friends in order to see where they have been<br />
and what they did. Forty-six per cent said that they<br />
are using Facebook to plan trips with their friends, and<br />
45 per cent think that Facebook entices them to visit<br />
their friends abroad.<br />
Go ahead and dare to say that modern technologies<br />
estrange people! Log in, check who has been where,<br />
and get inspiration for your next trip.<br />
Make sure you upload the photos you took in Rovinj!<br />
