Why Do Most Technology Projects Fail?

tech projects
For the past few years now, I have been running an annual poll on Polldaddy asking this question of my connections in tech:

Year after year, the number #1 response is "Poor requirements gathering and analysis." 

Currently, it is running away with 32% of the vote (more than twice as much as the other responses).

What say you? Do you agree with the 32%, or do you think there are other more pressing reasons?

Love to have you contribute!
