Week 2 Listening Exercise

Is the top picture a cat, a ghost, no it is Fribo!! Fribo was invented by Korean researchers to help...young lonely people. The value proposition for this item is that it helps you interact with friends so you do not feel alone. Loneliness can sometimes lead to depression so the product decreases those possibilities. There is not any other product like Fribo that does truly encourage you to talk to people. The news about this new robot has recently been posted and many people are talking about it. Most of the post are positive, but like every other product there are some people that do not want anything to do with this new robot. The positive comments say that Fribo is adorable, they want one, and even though they are not lonely they still really want one

It took me a while to look for a negative comment, but I finally found it! The odd thing about this comment was that I could not find it in the computer, but in my phone I did find it. That was odd but anyways. The comment talks about how people are already horrible at socializing and that this robot is not going to help things get better, but instead get worst.. What do you think?

Fribo is a simple product that will be there when no one else is there. It listens to noises around you and communicates it (sends a text message) to your "friends" all over the world. Different noises it recognizes are washer machine, when you open the refrigerator, or when a friend arrives to your place. If you are a lazy person to text Fribo can also be handy because Fribo can respond to text messages and all you have to do is knock twice or clap. To summarize, Fribo brings lonely people together so they can communicate with each other about their daily activates. The only thing about this cute/creepy robot is that it is still not in the market. It is still being tested in Korea, but as we can see many cannot wait until they get their hands on one of this. I think the product is being advertised by many news like CNN, famous people that are talking about it, and many people are sharing to other people the new great invention. 

If I was the manager of this brand, I would be extremely proud because it looks like more than 50% of people like the product. I would probably upload videos to keep customers updated about the research, so they can get even more excited for the launch of the product.
