The report, commissioned by Rackspace Managed Hosting into the Web in 2020, predicts that while virtual shopping will replace e-commerce, visiting stores as a social experience will maintain their popularity. It explores the role the Internet will play in the year 2020, and discusses the varying number of elements extending from retail to business, work and social interactions.
"The Web has already revolutionized the way we shop - groceries, clothing, skills and services are all bought and sold online and the ethos behind shopping sites, based on a moral economy of trust and reputation will continue to shape our v/e-commerce experiences," said Dr. Peter Marsh of the Social Issues Research Centre, who conducted the study.
"The growth of v-commerce over the next ten years, as predicted by SIRC, will be used to give customers a more tangible online shopping experience, where users can navigate virtual shopping malls in a 3D environment, providing an enhanced shopping experience that will to help drive online sales," says Jacques Greyling, MD of Rackspace Managed Hosting UK. "This move to virtual shopping will also place increased demand on the technology used to support online services, such as Web hosting, and so the robustness and reliability of these providers will be critical to its success."
