Social Media, Privacy and Excel

          Sun Strip is a removable and adhesive strip that applies to any technological piece of equipment that runs on electricity. As soon as the strip, roughly the size of a band-aid, is applied to the surface of the piece of technology, the internal energy shifts from electricity to solar energy. With small, solar panels, the strip absorbs the UV rays into the piece of technology. The computer, smart phone, tablet or mp3 player then stores the energy for future use.

          In order to promote and organize the Sun Strip, social media, privacy and Excel are used. Each form of technology assists to improve the overall efficiency of the product.
          Social media can be widely applicable where it can be used to promote and market the product. Facebook can be used to introduce the Sun Strip to an audience. As the demographics of the general Facebook audience is becoming more diverse, the advertisement should affect individuals of most appropriate ages and ethnicities. Facebook should also allow the users to promote the product by "sharing" the advertisement with their friends. Twitter can be used to promote updates to the Sun Strip. As the product is being improved, it is important that the consumers are aware that there is an updated version that is available.
         Privacy can be indirectly applicable to the Sun Strip. In order to reduce sharing of the product between consumers, each Strip can only be programmed for three different devices. Therefore, a Sun Strip user can program a laptop, a phone and a tablet without purchasing a new product. While this may not directly correspond with privacy, it does keep the product private by eliminating the option of sharing between more than three devices.
         Microsoft Excel is often used to record and calculate inventory and/or revenue in many organizations. Similar to many businesses, the Sun Strip company will also use Excel to record the acquired data from sales. This way we can observe how well and how frequent the product is selling. The data can also help illustrate who the consumers are, measuring and observing the demographics of consumers. Microsoft Excel has the great potential to reduce total error, effort and time of humans.
