Reviews & Statements

Lin (Information Systems, University of Sheffield, UK) et al., compile 11 articles that consider designing and building web-based consumer information systems that use digital technologies to involve consumers in the production, distribution, and consumption of projects and services, and the business and consumer value of these systems in a digital economy. Business, marketing, information systems, and computer science specialists from New Zealand, Europe, and Australia discuss the systematic development of consumer information systems, how they enable consumers to participate in their creation and production, a service-oriented system for real-time financial news analysis, the role of social media in marketing, how the value of cloud computing is co-created by service providers and consumers, customer involvement through online communities, the influence of web experience factors on consumer behavior, the role of consumer information systems in decision making, implications for the online experience, and other topics.
