Software with what?
I have been very busy gathering resources on the topics of my course project, and am now in the home stretch. I devised an outline for the flow of the paper….
The focus of the projected project is to be on the development of SaaS and S+S over the past couple years. Explaining their advantages and disadvantages, and how corporations (google/Microsoft) are using the tools to their full potential. It will then proceed to where each topic is headed and what each will need to do in order to compete with the other.
