I've been working in the area of eCommerce systems for a few years now and am currently working on a PhD on decision support for eCommerce systems. I figured it was time to renew and rebuild here. I've also begun to offer my photography for sale partly as an exercise in understanding some of the processes in online shopping a little better and partly for fun.

The other major reason for this site is to have a place where I can write about some eCommerce issues, in particular I'd like to provide information encouraging small business in Ireland to offer their products and services online. It is still, I believe a new enough area that small and medium size businesses under utilise. It's not as easy to do it right as most references to business online would have you believe. Compared to opening other new channels for your business, its not any more difficult either, so I hope to offer some benefit to people already doing business online and those thinking of starting to do business online. If you have a specific issue you'd like advice on, please fell free to contact me or post a comment on a blog post.
