With the technology exploring new limits, the growth tendency of this economy is clear, and more incumbents will face serious competition, which can’t be ignored. Several of these startups have untapped markets that are not being addressed, exploring that disruption leads to more innovative solutions that will likely lead to better services for people and organizations. Those startups might, though, move up the ladder and take away the market from those incumbents; with this work, we aim to analyze the role of digital economies in market disruption through the lenses of a case study and understand to what extent that case is looking at disrupt an existing market","PeriodicalId":373283,"journal":{"name":"Int.

They are used in almost all industries, including manducating, health, and education. Therefore, organizations must measure and evaluate the usability of their systems to get the most value from the systems. One of the most reliable evaluation scales that can measure the usability of the systems is the System Usability Scale (SUS) which was used in this study to evaluate the usability of Blackboard at universities in Saudi Arabia. This study showed that Blackboard as LMS had a high SUS score when it was used at Saudi Universities. Indeed, the current study revealed that Blackboard could be used in teaching effectively. Furthermore, the current research findings show that students have higher SUS scores than lecturers, which means they can easily use Blackboard. It is also recommended that lecturers receive more training on Blackboard.","PeriodicalId":373283,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Innov. Digit.

When people follow the others purchase decision on the Internet, online herd behavior occurs. This paper presents three experiments that examine herd behavior in virtual communities: In experiment 1, a 2 (Volume: sales/recommendation) online experiment was conducted. Experiment 2 investigated herd effects using a 2 (Number of volume: relative/absolute) × 2 (Number of scale: large/small) online experiment. Online experiment 3 examined herd effects using a 2 (Number of experience-sharing messages: more/fewer) × 2 (Number of recommendations: more/fewer) online experiment. These experiments involved 484 people in a Taiwanese virtual community. Results demonstrated that consumer recommendation volume causes significantly more frequent online herd behavior compared with sales volume.
