Overall effect of decision making using the internet on lives in the information age

Decision making overall makes a useful service to help people organise themselves regarding their personal lives. It is useful for saving money on everyday items, or on insurance quotes due to the fact that this type of service allows for users to scan a huge number of insurers for example, in order to identify the one which suits them the best. People can also get assistance from previous buyers for a product to help them determine whether or not a product is worth purchasing. However, decisions made on professional levels could mean that personal lives are affected for example by being denied a loan due to being blacklisted or having a bad credit rating. Furthermore, it is worth noting that this aspect of life in the information age does not really impact professional or social lives a great deal – this is an example of something which is best suited to personal lives.
