Information asymmetry

I am reading freakonomic, Steven D Levitt mention about Information asymmetry!

Refers to wikipedia, Information asymmetry stand for?

Information asymmetry occurs when one party to a transaction has more or better information than the other party. (It has also been called asymmetrical information). Typically it is the seller that knows more about the product than the buyer, however, it is possible for the reverse to be true: for the buyer to know more than the seller.



Sales man knows better than consumer, what will they do while doing sales? What their boss guide them how to do sales? I have heard few techniques, bellow are the examples.

Convince them to buy? If not successful? Confuse them.



Show the facts(untruthful one) to scared them, then later explain how your solution can help to cater.



So conclusion, Salesman will make you scared by confusing you, the purpose of doing that is to convince you to buy their products.

ubuntu beryl

, , ,

Indeed it shows the capabilities of berly, and it is a very fancy desktop. But I just can't use this kind of desktop, its full of eye candy and I will get bored after using it for long and find it irritating.

Anyway, it is cool to show off to friends who actually bought windows vista or think of buying windows vista.

Toydi have one for his Learn To Web.

Where is the comments?

my.opera.com seems not at the pool of google anymore. It seems that no one is read my here anymore, I couldn't find any comments recently, where is the comments?

Remember I get a list of comments, all asking for help and some of the question looks very silly.. those comments is not comments...Its like asking me, "Hey! you got an easy way to go?" "Hey! You have done that right? Do that for me too!" or "Hey! Sir, you are expert! you very smart! Do it for me okay?"

Some acts like "I am lazy to google" or "googling is waste of time"

Okay! I gave up.... I have many technical blogs to post now, I enjoy it and I have enough. I am gonna turn this personal blog into really personal. Photosnap cats and dogs around my neighborhood and post up here! Writing about pinger hackers how they perform their arts (nothing technical) and CnP bloggers! I gonna learn the skill from them, how they manage to CnP those beatiful contents.

wtf! oh I mean where is the fire! Fire burns lier, lier looking for buyers, buyers buy rubbish from lier...
