November 11th, 2008 · 1 Comment

This post completes my analysis of Ray Sims’s presentation to the Boston KM Forum on April 9, 2008. Ray envisions three scenarios to relate Web 2.0 and KM.

KM 2.0 and Knowledge Management: Part Eighteen

November 9th, 2008 · No Comments

This post continues my analysis of Ray Sims’s presentation to the Boston KM Forum on April 9, 2008. In approaching “Knowledge Management,” Ray again asks what the term “means to me.” He begins by describing his own research on definitions of KM. His initial effort produced 43 separate definitions which he reported on in his […]

KM 2.0 and Knowledge Management: Part Fifteen

September 30th, 2008 · No Comments

Over the past week, I’ve taken a break from this series, but I think that now is a good time to get back to it, since there’s still much to do. In April of 2008, the debate over KM 2.0 received a number of interesting contributions. The first I’ll consider here is Mike Gotta’s blog […]

KM 2.0 and Knowledge Management: Part Fourteen

September 20th, 2008 · No Comments

This discussion of John Tropea’s two blog entries of March 17th and 18th 2008, has turned into a series within a series. I guess that’s a measure of what happens in this blog medium.

The 80% Rule?

September 18th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m sure everyone has seen the oft-repeated “fact” that 80% of the information we deal with is unstructured and that only 20% is structured data.
 
Seth Grimes of Alta Plana and Intelligent Enterprise has written an interesting article on this claim here.

September 16th, 2008 · 1 Comment

On March 17 and 18th John Tropea, one of the most active bloggers on KM 2.0 and social computing issues made two very interesting contributions to discussion of this issue. On March 17, in a blog entitled “Why KM 1.0 Failed in a Nutshell,” John put his finger on a point very essential to this […]
