`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`

`
`
`The Internet has opened up new channels of communica-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`tion and vectors of influence over decision-making. Web
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`sites, peer-to-peer technologies, e-mail and instant messen-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`gers are new communication technologies, which have major
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`impacts.
`
`Advertisers and marketers have shown great interest in the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`influence ofthese new technologies. However, it is difficult to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`observe the channels of communication or vectors of influ-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ence using traditional market research methods.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Users of the new communication technologies have been
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`particularly quick to embrace instant messengers. Users
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`desire new ways of sharing with friends the experiences they
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`have and discoveries they make using the new communica-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`tion technologies.
`
`
`Therefore, there is an opportunity to introduce a new tech-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`nology, a method and device which provide a new way of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`sharing experiences, potentially allowing advertisers and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`marketers to study channels of communication and vectors of 45
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`influence at the same time.
