Ingabe usukulungele ukungena (noma ingabe butN)?

Kwethulwe ingosi entsha yokuxhumana nabantu eYurophu, futhi ibizwa ngokuthi butN. Umsunguli wayo, uRobin Chater, ukhulume nabezindaba engqungqutheleni yezindaba ngoLwesibili ekuseni, ngo-Okthoba 28, futhi waveza ukuthi kungani i-butN "idlula ezinye izinhlelo zokuxhumana ezifana ne-LinkedIn."

Ngokusho kwakhe ezinkundleni zokuxhumana zigcwele izimanga imizuzu emihlanu njengoba umhlaba ulindele isizukulwane esilandelayo ngemuva koFacebook, Twitter noLinkedIn. “I-butN ifaniswe ne-'Tinder' ngoba inhloso yayo ukuhlangana ubuso nobuso futhi isebenzisa i-proximity sensoring ukuze kutholwe abangaba oxhumana nabo." Lokhu kuphakamisa umbuzo wezigidigidi zamadola: Kungenzeka yini ukuthi i-butN ibe yinto enkulu elandelayo?

"I-butN imayelana nebhizinisi futhi ihloselwe ukuxhumana ubuso nobuso - kusetshenziswa ukuxhumana kwe-inthanethi, i-GPS nobunye ubuchwepheshe ukuze kuvunyelwe ochwepheshe ukuthi bakhe ukuxhumana nabantu emhlabeni wonke abahlangane nabo futhi ngenxa yalokho ababazi ngempela."

Umsunguli we-butN uvame ukubuzwa ukuthi ingabe ingqondo yakhe iyisizinda sebhizinisi sokuqomisana. "Kunomugqa ocacile phakathi komsebenzi nempilo yangasese futhi ngicabanga ukuthi nsuku zonke sikhipha lowo mehluko ngaphandle kwenkinga."

I-Chater inqabe izincazelo zokuqala ze-butN njengokuthi “I-Tinder yebhizinisi.” Ugcizelele ukuthi “ukwazi ochwepheshe abathakazelayo nabaphathi abaseduze kwakho kuyinzuzo enkulu uma ungekho ekhaya ngebhizinisi futhi isikhathi sakho sivame ukuba nenani eliphakeme kangako. Uma ujoyina isizindalwazi sebhizinisi esiku-inthanethi esijwayelekile njenge-LinkedIn akusho lutho ukuthi abanye abantu oxhumana nabo bakuphi. Phela awusebenzisi inethiwekhi ukuze uhlangane nabo."

Kodwa u-Chater kwadingeka avume ukuthi ithimba elisathuthuka i-butN libhalisele izingosi ezimbalwa zokuphola ukuze lenze ucwaningo lwalo lokuqala - okwathukuthela umlingani oyedwa lapho ethola imilayezo yothando ifika ku-smartphone yomyeni wakhe. Kodwa ukubaluleka kocwaningo olunjalo kwakungenxa yokuthi amasayithi okuphola aphushe imingcele yokuxhumana kakhulu kunamanethiwekhi omphakathi ajwayelekile.

Lapho ukuxhumana kwezamabhizinisi kuhluke ngokuphawulekayo ekuqomeni, ngokusho kukaChater, “ukuthi asikho isisusa esicashile noma umgomo ongaguquki ekuxhumaneni nomphakathi futhi akukho nokuqabulana kokulala ebusuku. Nakuba kuhlale kunento yomphakathi kukho kokubili ukuphola kanye nenethiwekhi yebhizinisi izici ezibalulekile akukhona ukuthi umuntu ubukeka kanjani noma ubuntu bakhe - kodwa ukuthi usebenzela bani, bazi bani nokuthi yimiphi imininingwane emisha yezohwebo noma yobuchwepheshe omunye umuntu anganikeza yona."

Ukuhlolwa kwe-Beta
I-butN yenze ukuhlola okubanzi kwe-beta, ikakhulukazi e-Australia. “Siphinde sakhuluma namaqembu amahhotela nezinkampani zezindiza ukuze sithole ukuthi i-butN ingenziwa kanjani ngokwezifiso izingosi ezifakwe amabheji zazo. Amahhotela, ikakhulukazi, anendlela ende okufanele ayihambe kusukela ekubizeni amakhasimende izivakashi ukuya ekuziphatheni njengababungazi beqiniso.

Izigaba
Kodwa ingabe i-butN inazo izimbangi? “Yebo, yebo,” kuvuma uRobin. “Kuhlale kukuhle ukuba nokuncintisana. Kukhona i-App ebizwa ngokuthi "Hellotel" ehamba phambili. Kodwa siqaphe ithrafikhi ku-Google futhi inabamukeli abambalwa. Ngiyakungabaza nokungathi sína kwayo, njengoba kubonakala bengalivikeli igama labo lomkhiqizo. I-ButN ayizange ithuthukiswe njengohlelo lokusebenza ngakho-ke iseduze ne-LinkedIn njengohlelo olukhulu kakhulu. Sesisondele futhi ekutholeni umjovo wemali yebhizinisi. Ngakho-ke ukuthi singadlulela ngale kwe-LinkedIn futhi sibambe isabelo semakethe isikhathi kuphela esingasho. ”

I-Tinder Connection
URobin ugcizelele ukuthi “nakuba uSean Rad, kanye noJustin Mateen, abangabalandeli besayithi elidume kabi lokuqomisana iTinder, bamemezele ngonyaka odlule ukuthi bafuna ukungena ezingosini zebhizinisi abakenzi kanjalo. Mhlawumbe baye baqaphela ngokuhlakanipha ukuthi ngeke bathembeke nakancane kwezamabhizinisi. Yilapho sihluke khona ngokuphelele ngoba sisekelwa iqembu labaqashi elihamba phambili kanye nenethiwekhi yefemu yabameli bamazwe ngamazwe.”

Isikhathi
URobin wathi leso sidingo kodwaN kudala sandulela i-Intanethi. “Ezinganekwaneni zamaGreki indodana encane kaZeyusi yayibizwa ngokuthi uKesari, unkulunkulu wamathuba. UKherasi wayenokhiye owodwa wezinwele olenga phambi kobuso bakhe futhi wayegijima yonke indawo ngesivinini esikhulu. Uma ungambambi ngezinwele njengoba eza ngakuwe yena (kanye nawo wonke amathuba amakhulu) uzolahleka unomphela. Nsuku zonke kwezamabhizinisi uCaerus uyadlula futhi bambalwa abafinyelela ngesikhathi. butN iklanyelwe ukusiza ukubamba uKherasi endleleni yakhe.”

Ebuzwa ukuthi umbono we-butN wavela kanjani ngo-Chater wachaza, “Bengisehhotela e-Guangzhou, eningizimu ye-China ngonyaka odlule futhi ngabona ukuthi i-'We Chat' isidume kangakanani phakathi komphakathi wamabhizinisi waseShayina. Lokhu kungenze ngacabanga ukuthi yonke intuthuko enkulu ezinkundleni zokuxhumana iqhamuke kanjani emazweni amabili kuphela – kungaba yi-USA noma iChina.”

Wanezela: “Ngangivame ukuzizwa ngilahlekelwe ithuba phakathi nobusuku obude emahhotela angenasici ngemva kwezingcindezi zemihlangano yasemini. Bese kungicacela ukuthi ukuxhumana ku-inthanethi kungashintshwa kanjani ukuze kusizwe isihambi sebhizinisi sikhululeke ngendlela ekhiqizayo - futhi ukhiye kwakuwukusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bedijithali ukwandisa ukuxhumana ubuso nobuso.
