Wei Yun Lim Blog Entry #9

Likeable definitely seems like the kind of place that I would like to work at-- and as I continue to visit places and compare them to one another, I think that Likeable's environment is one that suits me. I definitely like the idea of coming dressed casually to work, especially because I don't enjoy buying work clothes as should have been evident from the fact that I did not know I wasn't supposed to show up in jeans on my first day of this class.

However, what I think is that social media needs to evolve. Young teenagers are shifting towards WeChat and Snapchat over Facebook, which they think is uncool. It'll be interesting to see how Likeable shift as teens shift their social media marketing back to instant messaging-- it'll be like the early 2000s again!

As for Amazon Kindle and my new findings? Well, I've written about most of this on my paper by now (I'm writing this at 1:16 a.m. on Wednesday like the world's best student.). However, I've noticed that as a whole, Amazon's marketing has been directed towards the Kindle Fire HDX rather than towards the Kindle Paperwhite, which has had a lot less hype. This is probably because they are trying hard to enter the tablet market, and exit the e-reader market which is not doing as well as expected.

I have also not been able to include everything within my paper, so some promotions I found out about had to go. But never mind. I've done my best, and fingers crossed that tomorrow will do well.
