What should happen with MyESADEMBA.com?

March 3, 2010

Considering that I am graduating in a few weeks, I have been thinking about the future of this blog. What shall I do with it?

Help me with your opinions and thoughts because I think that this blog has turned out to be a great medium of discussion and interaction among students, faculty and staff.

In addition the Google rank is very good, which makes it quite attractive to the person taking over the blog ;)

Today 10.000th view! MyESADEMBA.com insights and statistics

February 9, 2010

10.000th view of my blog “My ESADE MBA“*! Who would have guessed that? I am celebrating a little :) Thank you very much for your support and readership!!!

I started to blog about my ESADE experience in Feburary 2009 in the wake of my application for a scholarship.  However once the scholarship application was rejected I decided to continue the blogging nevertheless because I enjoyed doing it.  (btw. some of those who received the scholarship are blogging on the ESADE blog)

Considering that today I have finally reached the 5-digit-views for MyESADEMBA blog I decided that I would give you some more insights about this blog and ESADE in general through my statistics. The statistics give you a very good overview of what people are interested in and what they like to read about ESADE.  Let’s see what we’ve got:

There are tons of more interesting stats such as these but that might be a little too much. What fascinates me most is the interest, almost obsession, in the rankings, comparisons against other schools and interview questions. What I don’t understand is that so many people are obsessed with the rankings and placements of ESADE students but why do I see so few candidates visiting the campus and enquiring about the life as ESADE students? Is that all there is to a school? Visit the campus, speak to the students, attend lectures… Ask me ;) I am looking forward to seeing you all on campus and happy readership :)

My ESADE MBA: tagcloud

Thanks to Donal Q. I just found this little software that generates tag clouds: Wordle.net

Thes are two sample tagclouds for My ESADE MBA. I love it and it is a great software for presentations as we saw today during class for the VW presentation :)

ESADE on the web

June 5, 2009

As I have mentioned earlier, ESADE is quite active on the web and uses many new social media tools. Have a look here for a list of the tools used by the marketing team, including twitter, facebook, flickr, bookmarks, widgets, etc.

These are the blogs about ESADE that I know of:

http://eumba.blogspot.com/
http://alleninbcn.blogspot.com/
http://morgans-musings.blogspot.com/
http://myesademba.com (this one obviously)

Special mention needs to go to Morgan Witkin who was featured in the ESADE Newsletter in June 2009 for her blog that was cited by Business Week

First person: Experiencing Barcelona

Deciding to pursue an MBA at ESADE Business School was “an evolution from the life I had been living to a completely new existence”. Read Morgan Witkin’s (current ESADE MBA student) account on her experiences living and studying in Barcelona as published in Business Week.
