Hello everyone,
As you can see, this is my first blog for the new subject 'Business Information Technology' educated on Tilburg University. The course will be challenging this year, because every participant has to interview three persons from a (non) profit-company. These respondents will be asked about their daily use of media in the organisation where they are currently working at. At this time, many organizations and companies worldwide changed their communication- and information systems to the digital world. This means that much software will be in use for purposes like internal/external communication, data implementation, data retrievement, social media etc. It is my job to find out which kind of media the organisation where I am going to is using.
Besides this, I'll have to make another note. Last year I was also following this course, but then it had another name (Media Use in Organisations). However, after 2 weeks I dropped out since I wanted to spread the amount of work which had to be done for this and other subjects. That is why I came up with the plan to pass the course did year. I already found out that at least one device of media is changing: the use of Google accounts itself. On Blackboard there is a manual about how to set up a Google account, a blog on Blogger.com and Google Analytics. I was just reading how to implement Analytics into my account; however, the explanation on Blackboard is different from the explanation that Google uses itself. This means that I might get in trouble setting up Analytics, since the description from Google is a bit vague. This means that in exactly twelve months software like Google Account has been changed. Only thing I hope for right now is that it will not be too hard to use for the average computer-user (like me).
Anyway, I'm finishing this blog right now and I'll hope that I can manage to install Google Analytics. I'll keep you updated in my next blog.
Cheers!
