One of the reasons I came back to MIT was to work with great people in the IT space. The Information Technology group at Sloan has been consistently ranked #1 for research productivity as well as for output. Key faculty like Erik Brynjolfsson, Stu Madnick, Peter Weill and others are principal thought leaders in how information technology changes the lives of business and consumer users.
I had the pleasure to work with some great colleagues this year, Andreas Goeldi and Bobby Lo. Together, we created a strategy piece for the rollout of Google Apps Premium. This is Google's first major attack on Microsoft's desktop hegemony. The analysis was very well received, and has led to a number of great dialogues with Google.
From this experience, I see a LOT of opportunities in the application layer above search. More on this later...Download 15_567_google_enterprise_installed_solution_goeldijoneslo.pdf
