Perkembangan e-commerce telah membawa perubahan terhadap strategi pemasaran pariwisata di berbagai negara, termasuk Indonesia. Penggunaan e-commerce pada industri pariwisata dikenal dengan terminologi e-tourism. Pemerintah telah menggelontorkan sejumlah dana yang cukup besar untuk mengembangkan e-tourism, terutama setelah diterapkannya tahun kunjungan wisata pada tahun 2008. Melalui metode observasi, penelitian ini ingin melihat pemanfaatan e-tourism sebagai media promosi pariwisata di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan kuesioner, peneliti juga ingin melihat tanggapan dari pengguna internet tentang hal-hal yang telah baik dan hal-hal yang perlu ditingkatkan dalam situs pariwisata di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa persebaran jumlah situs pariwisata berdasarkan provinsi belum merata. Penelitian ini juga menunjukan adanya korelasi yang tinggi antara jumlah situs dengan jumlah kedatangan wisatawan ke suatu provinsi. Sinergi antara pihak pemerintah dan swasta telah terlihat berdasarkan klasifikasi yang dihasilkan. Penelitian ini juga memetakan model evolusi situs yang dapat dimanfaatkan pihak industri untuk memeroleh target pasar yang diinginkan. Dari analisis hasil kuesioner, pengguna internet menilai aspek responsiveness dan interactivity perlu ditingkatkan, sementara faktor biaya layanan internet dan keahlian menggunakan internet bukan lagi menjadi hambatan yang berarti dalam mengakses situs pariwisata.

Internet public opinion has developed rapidly in recent years, which has more influence on society. The relevant problems of Internet public opinion have become the hotspots of research. The complexity of Internet public opinion spreading brings difficulties to research and analysis. For the problems of Internet public opinion spreading, an evolutionary model of Internet public opinion spreading is built based on evolutionary game theory in this paper, considering three subjects including Internet media, Internet users, and government. Then, the evolutionary stable strategies of the Internet public opinion spreading system are studied. Finally, the influences of the stable strategy of the Internet public opinion spreading system are analyzed through simulation. Relevant conclusions are obtained. The results show that there are multiple possible stable strategies in the evolution of Internet public opinion. The different initial probabilities of the strategy lead to the different stable strategies of the evolutionary system. The stable strategy is influenced by some factors, such as the punished loss of Internet media, the gain of Internet users from government controlling, and the cost of government. These conclusions have a certain guiding significance to Internet public opinion management and control.

Background: Although the Internet boosts business profitability, without certain activities like efficient transportation, scheduling, products ordered via the Internet may reach their destination very late. The environmental problems (vehicle part disposal, carbon monoxide [CO], nitrogen oxide [NOx] and hydrocarbons [HC]) associated with transportation are mostly not accounted for by industries.Objectives: The main objective of this article is to minimising negative externalities cost in e-commerce environments.Method: The 0-1 mixed integer linear programming (0-1 MILP) model was used to model the problem statement. The result was further analysed using the externality percentage impact factor (EPIF).Results: The simulation results suggest that (1) The mode of ordering refined petroleum products does not impact on the cost of distribution, (2) an increase in private cost is directly proportional to the externality cost, (3) externality cost is largely controlled by the government and number of vehicles used in the distribution and this is in no way influenced by the mode of request (i.e. Internet or otherwise) and (4) externality cost may be reduce by using more ecofriendly fuel system.

On February 4, 2015, China announced its new regulations that require all Chinese Internet users to register with their real names. The heightened control of Internet clearly demonstrates Chinese government's concerns over increasing social unrests and the abilities of Chinese Internet users to access information not censored by the government. However, the real-name registration regime has posed the greatest challenge to the anonymity of the Internet that many Chinese users have valued in an authoritarian society. Furthermore, the real-name registration system also impinges on Chinese Internet users' privacy, political freedom, and freedom of speech. This book chapter analyzes microblog discussions to examine existing Chinese censorship and control systems on the Internet, to investigate government's rhetoric to justify its censorship and control systems, and to identify major themes in Chinese netizens' reactions and discourses.

BuengKan is a new province not well known among tourists. Moreover, it is in the Northern part of Thailand, which is not a popular destination compared to the Northern and the Southern parts of the country.

The paper examines the views of Internet users concerning the protection of their rights on the Internet. The Web survey, conducted by the snowball sampling, included 783 Internet users who expressed their views regarding the ways the state (Serbia) and private agents (Facebook and Google) relate to the right of freedom of expression and privacy on the Internet. Also, the survey was used to examine the individual responsibility of users when it comes to the use of Internet services. Several hypotheses suggested that Internet users in Serbia do not have confidence in the country and private actors on the issue of protecting their rights. However, users also do not demonstrate a satisfactory level of individual responsibility. The most important findings indicate that: 1) only one-sixth of the respondents consider that the Government of the Republic of Serbia does not violate the privacy of Internet users; 2) almost half of the respondents do not feel free to express their views criticizing the government; 3) almost 90% of users are not satisfied how Facebook protects their privacy, while it is 1% lower in the case of Google; 4) a third of respondents answered positively to the question whether they had read terms of use of the analyzed companies, but half of them did not give a correct answer to the main questions; 5) only 8.9% of respondents who claimed to have read terms of use are aware of the fact that Facebook shares their data with third parties.

The tourism sector is one of the sectors that contribute to the creation of gross domestic product in Jordan and in accordance with the stated estimates, this sector accounts for about 10% of the gross domestic Product. Thus, there is a justification regarding the interest of the so- called tourist industry which became one of the most important sectors in most of the countries; so there is a continuous effort to develop this sector and reap the benefits of that in relation to the different economies. Jordan has a comparative advantage due to its strategic location, historical monuments, religious places, as well as the possibility of using the therapeutic, educational and recreational tourism and others in the near future. In the current time we have to develop a strategy for tourism choices, as well as a clear vision about the touristic quality, which aims at developing it. Therefore, we can say that there is a need to expand the overall usefulness of tourism by educating the people involved with tourism and highlighting its role and economic usefulness. Thus, this study addresses the definition of the concept of tourism promotion and its relationship with the concept of tourism marketing as a broader context, in addition to showing the importance of the internet in tourism promotion, and the requirements of their application, given the speed of the successive changes in the tourism work environment both on the national and international levels. The study focuses on identifying the extent of the information technology impact in general and the internet in particular as well as applying them in the touristic offices that are available in Wadi Mousa by highlighting the efficiency of the website on activating tourism, planning for the touristic area and identifying the impact of the network as a means of communication between the elements of touristic attraction in the touristic area and between the tourists regardless their nationalities. The results showed that the information accuracy via the internet in terms of the touristic offices increases the touristic attraction. The results also showed that emphasizing the activation of tourism promotion advertisements as well as the ideal planning for the programs and touristic services via the internet through the websites, particularly the government websites that provide valid information is the only means for solving all the problems of tourism promotion. In the light of the competitive and structural challenges facing the industry and agriculture sectors, the tourism sector is considered as the most prepared one in the short as well as the medium run in order to contribute to reaching the hoped growth rates, creating work opportunities as well as increasing the resources.
