Online businesses should consider using integrated technologies to attract a broader customer base, says WebNow.

One Cape Town CEO urges online businesses to integrate both platforms into their marketing and operational plans.
Internet usage and broadband trend reports issued by World Wide Worx and Cisco have shown a dramatic increase in connectivity and use patterns compared with last year.

A recent news article thereafter caught our attention:

“At exactly noon today, people around the world blew their Vuvuzelas, whistled and honked their horns to celebrate the first Fifa World Cup in Africa, due to kick off in just two days.
It was called the “Vuvuzela Moment” and it was celebrated in equal style online as it was offline. Tweeters in South Africa and across the world came to the party in fine style, causing the phrase “Vuvuzela” to trend on the world-famous social networking and microblogging service as fans across the world spoke about and blew their virtual Vuvuzelas in 140 characters.
