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 />
