This week in eBusiness class we started to learn about a new topic, and a topic that I definately wasn't expecting to have to deal with in college! The topic was......... wait for it...... The Sex Industry and E-SEX!! Initially I was unaware what the sex industry had to do with eBusiness, I actually thought it was just our lecturer playing a joke on us to see if we were paying attention, when I read the first slide of the handout in class..
As class progressed I quickly realised that this industry has been the instigator and initial user of many of the key eBusiness tools we have learnt about over the course of the term.
Discussion in class in relation to this controversial taboo subject was marred, obviously, by judgements, with remarks passed on everyone who dared to make comments about what they knew. 'Oooohhhh how do you know about that' or 'Is that what you get upto in your spare time then', were amongst the common 'slags'. It seemed as if you were damned if you said anything!
But in saying this I think everyone leaned a lot from this topic. Reading over the notes you get an extent of the scale of this industry. Its a $57 billion worldwide industry
