Listed companies' 2009 and 2014 annual reports' contents were analyzed to identify the rate of the recognition and the application of sensibility to their business. Even though the quantitative result of the content analysis indicates not a strong relationship between corporate innovativeness and 'sensibility' qualitative result identifies companies are paying more attention to the 'sense' and 'feeling' during five years. In conclusion, the innovation that company pursues strategically is shifting from differentiation and the technological leadership to satisfying user experiences and the number of companies which express and measure user feeling and emotions are increasing.

Since the Web is dynamic, it is necessary to analyze scholarly Web space with both quantitative and qualitative methods for better understanding of communication characteristics. In this study, we analyzed contents of pages and links to ascertain the characteristics of Korean scholarly Web space in terms of network structure and communication behavior. The result shows that the structure of the original network with all the external links remained is not much different from that of the network with activated external links only. However, the purposes of linking vary among scholarly institutions. The centrality measures correlate more strongly with the clustering coefficient than with the constraint index implying the similar explanatory power of the two types of structural indices.
