The Phenomenon of O2O    [last update: October 25, 2020]

'Any2Any' or just A2A, carries connotations of one-to-one, one-to-many, and even zero-to-any, to eventually anyone to anyone. Such A2A phenomenon could only take place in the virtual world, lending the grandness of anyone could communicate with anyone in the world without any pre-disposed connectedness assumuption.

O2O is of both, Online-to-Offline and the reverse, or is it truly a reverse in most senses? A2A is a characteristics of O2O.

O2O is not of the e-commerce scope, but, in one simple scenario, where a face-to-face meeting (offline) will continue in the virtual Zoom meeting (online), and including the notion of O2O, where an online touchpoint of a product was established and final transactional behavior continued in offline at a brick-and-mortar store.
