Biri 2006 senesinde, diğeri 2011’de. Bunları zamanında <a href="http://www.sinaafra.com/turk-internetinin-yeni-kirilma-noktasi-2011-ve-melekler-seytanlar-doneminin-baslangici">yazmıştım</a>, onun için bir daha detaya girmiyorum. Ama üçüncü bir kırılma noktasına yaklaşıyoruz. En azından bana öyle geliyor. Bunun için 2012'yi yarılarken bir ara değerlendirme yapmak istedim...]]></description>

Aynı zamanda Markafoni Plaza'dan güzel çekimler görebilirsiniz.

The close cooperation between SEM and Markafoni was one of the global cases of Google. And you can see some nice shootings from our Markafoni Plaza]]></description>

Kanımca şu an dünya yeni bir eTicaret değer yapısının içine girmiş bulunuyor. Bu değer yapısını etkileyen iki etken var: Birincisi yeni formatların başarılı olmasından kaynaklanıyor. Bu oturmuş yapıların hepsini etkileyecek. İkincisi, kullanıcı deneyiminde büyük değişiklikler oluyor. Check-out süreci örneği bunun en belirgin örneği. ]]></description>

The Turkish eCommerce is having a golden time. No idea which is not localized within a few months. Not a single investor who can afford not to invest in Turkey. Just a focus on the top 20 players in this market shows, how much the dynamics changed in the last 12 months.   

In one of my last <a href="http://www.sinaafra.com/why-turkey-is-hot">articles</a>, I tried to summarize why I believe Turkey is one of the hottest countries in the internet space. The questions, mails, tweets and all other communication after that article was overhelming. And one of the most asked questions was about the Turkish eCommerce... This is how the story of this article started in my mind. ]]></description>

Bundan tam bir sene önce "Melekler ve Şeytanlar döneminin başlangıcı" baslıklı bir yazı yazmıstım. Bu yazı yazdığım yazılar arasında en çok konuşulan yazı oldu. Bir sene sonra, o yazıdaki öngörülerin üstünden geçip, yeniden bir değerlendirme yapma zamanı gelmiştir...]]></description>
