More on the importance of blogging
In my last entry I noted how important blogging is becoming. It also seems to be a godsend for Knowledge Management, a topic I am interested in because my current company is a player in that field. I have found
several articles that discuss the potential of blogs to KM.
Blogging does seem to fit right into many of the ideas in
The Social Life of Information (a great book). People love to input information (getting information is has long been the bane of KM) , and if the blog is a work context, the information they enter can go a long way to helping other people, even if that is not what is intended.
I see this as a great KM tool for the future. I hope my company will see the light and put this into their product by default. It would be quite easy, and my company's product would naturally make a powerful weblog tool. I'll try to convince someone...
