Check out the Discussion for Week Five

Not to be paranoid, but our course facilitator has a BUNCH of items listed in the Discussion threads for next week. Here's what he has listed:

your section web site
Site Map and Web design requirements
style sheet
Website Logistics
Website Project Plan
Week 5 simulation
website template
About the Managing B2B Relationships Simulation Exercise

There are no details listed under any of the topics. Perhaps we will receive further instructions. I hate to guess, but I assume he is wanting us to post something under each topic.

I enjoyed talking with everyone today. We may need to get together again before Friday.

Do We Have A Conference Call Today?

I have been checking both my home and office emails to see if we have a call scheduled for this afternoon, and, if so, verify the dial-in information. Does anyone know?

The more I read, the more I feel overwhelmed by this project. When we finally do get together by phone, what is it that we expect to accomplish? I feel like we should already be underway with this project.

Looking at the Web Site Design Plan, there are 13 questions we need to answer. We already have a start with identifying the competition. We need to agree on our position and our competitive edge. What ideas are swirling in your heads?

Wasn't sure if anyone had checked out the Wikipedia comments, but they are interesting.

Does anyone have any technical expertise?
