What I saw of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge would be an example of hierarchical diffusion. It gained popularity as celebrities and well known people did it, and then spread around rapidly. It was a very clever way to raise money and awareness for the cause, because it was fun and easily circulated.

Although most people see this as a big joke of a comedy, it may develop into a very serious issue. The movie is racist toward the North Koreans,and mocks their culture.

I agree that the movie mocks their culture, but due to the high firewall of North Korea, I do not see the uprising among their people, but rather their government. The government is drawing more attention to the issue.

I agree with Peyton. Do you think that the general public is aware of the movie and the controversy that it is bringing? If so, to what extent?

This bodes well for growth companies in the consumer and retail space. It also bodes well for investors, whether they use an online investing platform or invest offline.

Retail services are so profitable and this relates to cultural landscape, because it says something about a land that spends and earns more money in services that help consumers than in areas that supply food and resources.

Retail services are one of the largest areas of consumer services and the tertiary sector as a whole.

I wonder if these services will become more or less profitable in the future?

I would believe that the consumer sector would out do the tech sector simply for the fact that it is more traditional. People are more used to shopping and buying things in person, so tech services trying to let people buy things online face an uphill battle one getting people to switch over. Also everyone has to buy things at some point at a retail store, but not everyone will need help with their technology.

I believe that we would expect to see an increase in the profits of tech services because as more and more people grow familiar with these services, it is much more convenient and easier for them, like using online shopping rather than going out and spending the time and effort to shop in person. This can be shown by companies like Blockbusters and Borders who went out of business due to at home conveniences of the internet. However, some retail stores and services cannot, and most likely will not, go away because people need what they sell right away, such as grocery stores.
