Searching for holidays ideas? Major social networking sites could be the answer to your problems.
According to reports, more than fifty percent of consumers surveyed by company Deloitte stated that they use the social networking sites in researching and finding gift and holiday ideas.

About fifty two percent of those surveyed go through the wish lists specified by their friends and loved ones in social networking sites such as MySpace, Multiply and Facebook.

Aside from getting ideas, the social networking sites are becoming more accessible when it comes to finding product discounts and other sales.

Topping the list of popular gifts this holiday season include mobile phones such as iPhones, mp3 and mp4 gadgets, notebook computers, personal computers, lingerie and many more.

About fifty five percent of respondents stated that they plan to use their phones in finding stores in the area and even use the gadget to search for discounts and make purchases.
