However, general focus on one-to-one conversations has overlooked the poten- tial of always-on group and community links. I hypothesize that asynchronous persist- ent audio is a superior medium to support scalable always-on group communication for mobile devices. To evaluate this claim, one must first have an adequate interaction de- sign before its possible to investigate the qualities and usage patterns over the long- term. This design does not exist for mobile devices.

  • Master Thesis (60 Credits)
    UNIVERSITETET I OSLO Department of Informatics Technology, Organization and Learning Email-Practices and Coordination in an Expanding Innovative Organization Master Thesis (60 credits) Jan Henrik Helmers May, 2009 Abstract The use of email has become increasingly popular during the last two decades. For some companies, email is how they communicate and coordinate their work. I have studied the Norwegian company Opera Software and the email practices of its employees, using qualitative methods and lightweight statistics. I argue that the Opera Software employees have become email professionals as a result of the large email volume. They have adapted a company-wide practice of using mailing lists, enabling them to be easily reachable through direct email while at the same time not being drowned in the constant stream of incoming email. I argue that as the company continues to expand, the practice of relying solely on email for coordination is reaching its limits. The mailing lists are segregated and fragmented into new forms, which has potentially limiting consequences for the company’s ability to innovate. Keywords: email, media richness, communication, innovative organizations, work practices, expanding organizations, email overload 2 Preface This thesis is the final deliveryfor completing my study of Technology, Organization and Learning (TOOL), an interdisciplinary program, at the University of Oslo. It is the culmination of several years of study. Bycombining the studies of informatics, sociology and pedagogics, I have deepened my understanding of the complex interplay between technology, its users and the organization surrounding it. My thesis draws inspiration and motivation from working with information technology (IT) professionals, but it is mostly relying on sociological theories for its findings and discussions.
