Almost have master’s degree
It has been more than a few months since I wrote a post in this blog. I am about to change that lousy habit. My lack of writing does not have its roots in lack of events. The last half year has been more hectic for me than any other half year has been.
I’ve been spending my time finishing up my mater’s thesis that I write in cooperation with Microsoft. Due to an NDA, I cannot tell you what the contents of the paper is, but only that it’s about using the UCD tool called personas in larger organizations. Except from that, the only thing I can say is that I’ve spent the last year (since January 2006) gathering data for the paper, and the last 6 months writing it. I finished it up a few weeks ago, and is now awaiting review comments from my Microsoft superviser and my counselor at CBS. The project is two months late, but I guess most master thesises are in Denmark. I’ll turn in the paper sometime next week – and a month after this, I’ll have a master’s degree in Computer Science and Business Administration – a cand.merc.dat.
Things have not gotten to be less hectic as I started my first ever full-time work as a web developer for AdPepper. AdPepper is one of those old-time internet companies that actually make money! They sell banner advertisement and have some pretty unique and sweet products, which I’m sure that I’ll talk about at some later time. I’ve been hired to be a part of the yet unnamed development team, which product’s site will launch on March 5th, 2007 – at least that is the plan.
So now that we’re all up to date, I’ll stop this post here and end it with a: “I’m back”... with a promise of more posts in the future.
