Well it is a little while after I finished classes for the summer now, and infact for the course. Now down to me and I knwo I have got a mountain of work infront of me that needs completing. The true question is how will I get this done and how will I organise my time.
I am starting to think that I need to base this on habit rather than need and therefore propose that each Sunday morning I will do some reading / research / writting / exploring into ...]]></description>

I went to see someone at LSBU today, an academic supervisor no less.
We spoke for a quite a while and he has managed to instil some focus on this whole exercise. Essentially we went back to basics and said, what is web technology, what is its application and how can that be used. Then what are the outcomes to the business and how is this percieved from the view of the staff, organisation and customers. If we survey or interview from here and analyse we can start to map out ...]]></description>

Just a quick update here&#8230; thought still is, would investigating SSM or Socio Technical aspects. I think that this would defintely be an interesting avenue and allow me to look at the technology from yet another viewpoint&#8230; which must do me some good. The blundering question still is how this is all going to fit into a dissertation. Hopefully I will go and talk about this with a supervisor at LSBU soon as struggling is definately a word I can relate to at the moment and I need to get ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok here we go&#8230; up the steps. LSBU have contacted me and asked me to write some thoughts on my dissertation so instead of my usual online colum I think that it would be better for me to write up some emails in here:
email one
Thanks for the insight, certainly something to think about. I will give the dissertation some thought over the next few days (especially as it is the MBA residential this week) and write up an email on Monday.
You are right, it is still very vague which is ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I havent followed the last post too tightly but thought I would see what academic papers I could find that would support my ideas of Web Tech providing a competitive advantage. I have started with some of Porters as per the other HBR and gone forth to see what more recent work I can find. Again im finding it slightly limited and its difficult without much guidance but hopefully its coming together&#8230; at least a little bit.

Ok, so I am new to all this but something seemed to explode all over the scene a few years ago regarding IT and its competitive advantage &#8211; alhough this doesnt support my argument for web technology it might offer some clarity. here are the phases:
IT doesnt matter anymore (Havard Business Review article)
http://hbswk.hbs.edu/archive/3520.html
Blog from the author (with LOTS of comments)
http://www.nicholasgcarr.com/articles/matter.html
The paper turned into a book (and a million online discussions available through Google)
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=wrROE6SLJFEC&#38;dq=harvard+business+review+open+source+competitive+advantage&#38;printsec=frontcover&#38;source=in&#38;hl=en&#38;ei=Um8RSoKUEcOOjAf-qs2zBg&#38;sa=X&#38;oi=book_result&#38;ct=result&#38;resnum=12
This basically states that Competitive Advatage should be gained through sources other that IT and seems to align ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have started looking a bit more into what literature there is out there and seeing if there are any books to help me. That coupled with the thought I quite like marketing lead me to the ecommerce section of waterstones in trafalgar square last night until I realised the shop was shutting up and I was too tight to fork out £35 for another book&#8230; at least yet.
The book in question is by a guy called Dave Chaffey and I have also looked him up online here: www.davechaffey.com and ...]]></description>

Problem is this&#8230; I am still unsure what I need and how I will turn this into a dissertation. I have looked up and mainly found information on IT and its use in the 1990&#8242;s which seems very well documented. Some papers look ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After looking into what / how / where i can complete my dissertation the most obvis route seems to be looking into how websites are used within the context of the business. After some pondering this week I think that the best way to look at this is to see how web activity adds value to the business and how it can be incorporated into standard practice.
This is probably way off context but it seems really interesting so I think that I am going to look into it and see ...]]></description>
