The word Black Friday is not very well known in Germany as it is a U.S. only phenomenon. It describes the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States, which is the beginning of the traditional Christmas shopping season. Basically Black Friday is about shopping till you drop. Retailers of all kind present quite impressive bargains and even the Apple store offered apps for free which actually cost a couple of bucks. Check out this great heatmap visualization of Black Friday’s buyer and seller interaction on ebay. It looks like nuclear war but it is in fact thousands of Christmas presents. Did anybody use the word economic crisis?
