Thesis: Defended

On July 20th I defended my thesis titled "Information Organisation Practices on the Web: Tagging and the Social Organisation of Information"



I wrote the entire thesis in OpenOffice on a Linux based computer and used Calc and OpenStat to do most of the calculations. I also used CiteULike to record my references. If nothing else, this certainly proves that OpenOffice is a full blown office suite.

The thesis is based on a series of conference and journal papers, so perhaps 50 or 60% of the material has already been published or presented at conferences. I thought the method worked well for an emerging phenomenon.
