E-Commerce and its Advantages

Image
By
Buying online is the current trend. The traditional form of shopping consists of street-side stores and big wholesale warehouses where the shopper needs to physically visit and make a purchase. Before the purchase, the shopper has the provision to either go through the showcases available, to quickly scan for the desired products or ask the shopkeeper for a particular product. These are the steps usually followed in the case of conventional way of shopping.

Coming to the modern era, the advent of digital technology has made virtual shopping possible. The advantage is that the shopper can just sit at his home and make the purchase. Surprisingly, the shopper can follow all the steps he used to do in traditional shopping in online shopping as well. But, everything is in a modified form.

For example, in an e-commerce website, every product is arranged in a systematic way so that easy finding is possible. This reminds us the way how products are arranged in showcases in a physical shopping store. In the case of clothing stores, instead of fitting rooms, an e-commerce website gives options to find the correct fitting size. If you can consult the shopkeeper for product information, you can chat with the customer care executive using the in-built instant messaging service of many e-commerce websites.

There are thousands of e-commerce websites available nowadays. Even if you are small scale seller, internet provides you provision to sell online. Online shopping is more popular in Europe, US and other developed countries comparing to the developing nations.


Amazon, e-Bay, BestBuy, etc are a few of the well-known e-commerce websites. I regularly interact with Uniwear.ie, which is an online store that sells Irish uniforms and workwear for nursing professionals and healthcare assistants. Another e-commerce website is TripAttires.com, which is a website selling branded fashion clothes for men and women.

I know there are a lot of professional as well as artistic fonts available online to be used while designing your e-learning course. Of course, some fonts look exactly like the hand written letters or the chalk-drawn ones. Here, I want to share a simple method to create chalk-written letters (or images). Apart from PowerPoint, what I use additionally to create the letters is the MS Paint version available with Windows 7. You can use the image of a chalk board in PowerPoint seen as below. You can browse the image of a chalkboard from net or you can find one in the PowerPoint's clip arts section itself. If you don’t have the chalk-written fonts installed on your computer, try doing the steps which are described below. Open your MS Paint (Windows 7) and manage some blank white space. Select the Brushes from t...

Remove Image Backgrounds Using Paint in PowerPoint – An Outdated Update

By
The traditional methods of removing backgrounds of images in PowerPoint 2007 version have become obsolete now with the advent of the innovative background removal tool in the 2010 version. But since what the proverb reminds us is being late is better than being never’, I decided to post a small tip, using which we can make the background removal in 2007 version a little bit finer with the application of MS Paint. We know two methods of background removing in PowerPoint 2007. In the first method , we draw an outline of the main object in our image using freeform shape and fill the shape using the picture or texture fill option.
