Week 9 - E-Bay

Reflection of Management & Information Systems

E-Bay

According to the case study E-Bay was the largest online business. This article discussed different aspect of the business in order to improve our understanding of what it is and how it functions. We also looked at how it used media to grow and continues to use it. Its growth and establishment reminds me of the process of “MacDonaldisation”.  We also discussed the assignment and its submission. I was relieved to hear that our group assignment deadline was at midnight instead of 5pm.

Due to some complications and a fault of my own we had to film things very last minute. My section was filmed on 19th April and everyone else will film their part today. After which I will be able to edit the video and then send it out to everyone. Sadly my computed decided to act up and I was not able to access anything on my laptop, thanks to my uncle and his directions I was able to open it up and tweak some things that were loose (apparently) although I lost most of my work I am now able to use my laptop properly again. I did lose all my previous work however whatever I had sent to my team on Whatsapp – I was able to recover it and build up on it. In general I am disappointed with the amount of information I was able to bring to the table. If I had my original script I would have no regrets. However I do not have it and all of my law textbooks were returned already and I couldn’t do too much of a deep research at such late notice. I did incorporate some things that I do remember from my previous work. But I wish I had my original script.
Still there is no sign of Rihanna; I hope she makes it to today’s recording so she can also get the grade with us. But well. we’ll see how that goes.
