I chose this article because I have always been interested in the practice of using computer science to analyze and help explain trends that happen economically, and financially. My initial impression of this article was that it was short and concise.

The lead section of the article explained what Business Informatics was right away. The following paragraph dove a little deeper into what BI contained and where it is most prominent. Overall the lead section was very concise, mostly because BI is still in its infant stages so there isn't a ton about it yet.

The article has good content, that does not seem to be weighed heavily on one particular topic over another. It does a good job of explaining what BI is and how it differs from Information Systems, without putting one over the other.

The article is a little difficult to read mostly because of all the terminology present. It does do a good job of organizing its topics, which makes it easier to find a particular section. The fact that there are no charts or images included make it an even tougher read.

Overall, I am pleased with content of the article and think it can help people better understand what BI is and how it differs from the tradition IS taught in the United States. I would however recommend using slightly easier language, so that a person who is new to the space can get a better grasp on what is being said. That being said it is a well developed article with ample room for expansion once the topic becomes more prominent throughout the world.
