What makes you think of that? Please elaborate. IMO people chat, share stuff, pay and do others things in the same app(wechat) is neither necessary nor helpful for bringing them together.
- vinceguidry 8y agoIt's less about what they provide and more about how they use it. Americans use technology to wall themselves off from others, Asia in general with the exception of the unfathomable Japanese, uses technology to assist and facilitate, the same way we used to use it until the last few years. If an American wants to connect with a fellow American, they must first find a convincing reason to. We don't just talk to each other anymore. The rest of the world is not like this. China is merely one example. It's America that's the exception. China is the rule.
