Gentlemen

I think there is a rural urban divide here or a divide between the developed and the developing world.

In the west online media is  very powerfull but it is not that powerful in the developing world.

In the Indian subcontinent more than60% of the people in villages. Power suply is erratic and load shedding is quite common. Standard internet connectivity would only be available in district and subdivisional towns and may be near by villages.  Hence for the time being changes may only be taking pace in B2bB marketing

But we hear  that even in remote villages people are trying to connect to the internet through their mobile phones  recharging them with TRACTOR battary the most reliable source of electricity with the tractor working like a power generator.

Yes changes have started . A niche market has be created for Mercedes Benz cars and Harley davidson bikes but still for the masses I think mass marketing will remain for a long time at least in the rural areas of the developing world.
