Facebook allows you to buy and send gifts through social networking

Buying gifts on the internet is usually easy if you have the recipient's address.  Something great was Announced by Facebook today, especially developed for the immediate purchase of gifts for other people in the social network. The user chooses the item, confirm payment and pick the friend. Across the screen, this friend full delivery information.


It is the same recipient who enters the full address to which the mail delivered by the product there. He also exchange an item for another if you have not liked what the friend wanted gift. It seems a bit rude to exchange a gift even before receiving it, but it's the kind of innovation that allows Facebook Gifts. Who does not like at all flowery clothes would have no reason to get one of these before requesting a clothing exchange for chess.

The news so far applies only to the United States. Other countries should receive it "gradually," according to Facebook. Among those present previously registered in the system for women's stockings, cupcakes and teddy bears, as well as Starbucks cards to exchange.

Think about it: Facebook knows the birthdays of most of his friends. Even if you forget to plan something like a party, at least have a chance to warn you about this. The section of the site listing the birthdays of the day goes to display the button "Give him (a) a gift." The pleasure is just a few clicks away.

A register was opened for traders expressing interest in selling gifts in the social network. We do not know what portion of the sale value is for Mark Zuckerberg and which goes to the merchant.

This is an interesting way to get money with a social network. Facebook is struggling to show that came in trade. The social network with 800 million registered does not generate as much revenue as was imagined to embark on Nasdaq electronic stock exchange in the United States. Stock prices fall sharply before stabilizing. Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of the company, had to publicly commit not to sell shares for a period of one year to demonstrate their confidence in the company and relieve pressure from shareholders and investors.

The Facebook Gifts also works on software for mobile devices.
