If only you’d taken the time to proof read it for me like I asked, and did for yours I seem to remember? Uni weren’t ready for my radical “advancements” of the english language.

Do you want to post mine too? Your readers might like to compare a disseration that got a 2:1 with one that got a 1st?! If only you had a better grasp of the english language xxxx

Hi Adam,

I am very interested in your dissertation for download, but still can’t find it on your webpage.

Could you help me please.

Thanks, Mike

Its was my undergraduate thesis so served academic purposes but also my love of Threadless. I also liked the challenge of writing on a really unusual and new topic considering my degree was Business Information Systems. Most people wrote theirs on Virtual Teams, CRM, Geographical Information Systems etc. I got to write about Virtual Communities and tshirts!

The original plan was to do half Spreadshirt/half Threadless as I was sort of arguing against the Spreadshirt Mass Customisation approach to product creation. The english speaking Virtual Community of Spreadshirt wasnt large enough to get a comparable datasize to my Threadless research so I had to drop that half. I discuss why I think this is in the Dissertation.

I was just wondering whether you wrote this dissertation for some kind of academic purpose (like a university project), or just because you really like Threadless?

Also, why did you pick Threadless over Spreadshirt?

Anyway, I look forward to reading the whole thing, should be interesting.
