Facebook is now stepping to the stage of health care!It seems revolutionary and novel for a social website to have health care included in their operation.
From my perspective, it’s quite helpful for the facebook users to enjoy this service. Not only can they develop their social relationship when using the facebook,
but also help eliminating their health concern. They can seek advice online for healthcare or for determining their health problem by sharing their symtoms with other facebook users who have experiences in it.
What’s more, by showing their willingness of devoting the organs as a status on their front page, Facebook might gradually turn to be a relativey reliable and large resource for obtaining information on organ donation, which is pretty helpful to not only the users but also the whole socierty.
Launching this function, it is no doubt that Facebook would gain tremendous triumph in getting large marketshare in the following future. Because it’s no longer simply a social application but also a healthcare provider. Young adults and teenagers, who’s usually socially active, might be the main clients of Facebook. But by providing the health care service, Facebook is able to distinguish itself from the
normal social apps like twitter, tumblr. It is creating its unique business value, which is the decisive winning factor of a company.
From my angle alone, a company should keep developing its own unique value in order to make itself outstanding in the competitive market.
