The Impact of online reviews: An annotated bibliograpy by Panos Ipeirotis.
From the post:
A few weeks back, I received some questions about online consumer reviews, their impact on sales, and other related questions. At that point, I realized that while I had a good grasp of the technical literature within Computer Science venues, my grasp of the overall empirical literature within Marketing and Information Systems venues was rather shaky, so I had to do a better work in preparing a literature review.
So, I did whatever a self-respecting professor would do in such a situation: I asked my PhD student, Beibei Li, to compile a list of such papers, write a brief summary of each, and send me the list. She had passed her qualification exam by studying exactly this area, so she was the resident expert in the topic.
Beibei did not disappoint me. A few hours later I had a very good list of papers in my mailbox, together with the description. It was so good, that I thought that many other people would be interested in the list.
Questions:
- When was the last time you read a review of topic map software?
- When was the last time you read a review of a topic map?
I mention this bibliography in part to show the usefulness of online reviews and possibly how to make them effective.
It that sounds like cold-blooded marketing, there is a good reason. It is.
What topic map software or topic map would you suggest for review?
Where would you publish the review?
