The Next New Thing

 Alibaba's Taobao announced they will using virtual reality technology to make a new way to shop online in China. I think it is a "new media" coming soon. Consumers can wear special goggles to break time and space contstraints to casually stroll around the mall in the world. They can try all kinds of goods by using VR technology to restore the real scene when they shopping. For example, when you are at home, after wearing special goggles to enter Taobao website, you can choose to go to New York's fifth Avenue or you can choose the British retro market. Additionally, when consumers choose a sofa in a virtual environment, but you can see directly sofa at home, and look at the size of the color is appropriate.When I hear this announcement, I felt unbelievable. However, I believe the stronger technology, the more newly media coming.
