Rain in Boston and Academic Mercenaries

This weekend has been a rainy weekend. I therefore spent most of the time in my office, in order to think about the world and my research. I am currently conducting an online survey, which is posted on the http://newschoolers.com forum. This survey is part of my research, where I am trying to find out how social capital affects knowledge sharing and knowledge creation processes. In particular, I am interested how new ideas and information about skiing spread in an online communtiy depened on the structure of the online community. I so far have 820 respondents. I hope I'll break the 1000 barrier next week! A first glimpse of the network structure can be found here.

Besides that I discovered that a good friend of mine, Philipp Mueller, who is a professor at ITESM/tec de monterrey in Mexico has just started his own blog. Here is his link: http://philippsmueller.blogspot.com/.
