  7. Online Shopping over 1995 • PayPal came into existence in the year 1998.

Stores online. © Copyright 2011 - 2012 www.DealsDirect.com.au

  8. Online Shopping After 2000 • As they say, what followed after Google is history. Be it the dot com bubble or the Web 2.0, the Internet has experienced exponential growth (with its own pitfalls) that has shaped the lives of many. • As we know it, the Internet continues to grow with major and minor ecommerce companies launching their own set of stores. • Today, we can literally buy anything via the Internet. That is the wonderland of ecommerce. © Copyright 2011 - 2012 www.DealsDirect.com.au
