I'm very excited to have settled on a thesis topic. It still needs to be ironed out quite a bit, and I'm not sure if I'll discuss it publicly for quite a few months, but it relates to Karl Marx, Linus Torvalds and David Korten... and it will be beautiful.
I've also started a "Thesis Blog" (working title... suggestions welcome) over at gnovis, where I'll be chronicling much of my thesis writing experience over the next year. The first post discusses my two year battle to choose a topic, which finally came to a close this past weekend...
Like a bolt of lightning, it hit me. I wrote down two lengthy sentences, then stood up and announced to the room "I just found my thesis topic... let's go to the beach." Which we did.
Enjoy!
