MRS conference, and a few other updates

It's been a while since I posted here, due to some busy times at work... and at least partly due to having a paper accepted for the MRS Research 2008 conference. The paper, co-written with Diana Derval of Derval Research, was part of a fun session on Web 2.0 and communities, which was generally well received (as far as I'm aware at least..). 

If you're looking for a write-up of the event, the most thorough I've found so far is Simon K's 4-part oeuvre - well worth a read, and don't be put off by its length.

In other news, Ray Poynter of Virtual Surveys has created a social network for market researchers, called Market Research Space. There's a number of  interesting discussions happening already, so if you're into that sort of thing, do sign up - you'll find me there too, so feel free to connect!
