INFOGRAPHIC: It's a social, mobile shopper world

Via SiliconRepublic: 
The marriage of mobile shopping and social networking is the subject of a new infographic that reveals facts and figures about consumer behaviour in relation to the two technologies.

The infographic published by SteelHouse on Visual.ly illustrates consumers’ favourite places to socially share online purchases, consumers’ use of Facebook versus Pinterest, the top 3 reasons consumers use retailer mobile apps, and consumers’ use of product reviews and product ratings.

Some of the findings the infographic reveals are most (55pc) of consumers share their purchases socially on social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, with Facebook being the most popular forum, with 55pc of consumers. However, 79pc of Pinterest users are more likely to purchase items they have seen on Pinterest compared with Facebook users’ purchasing behaviour.
