Knowledge Management

Knowledge Management (KM) is a business process that connects people to people and people to information. It results in connecting people with shared interests into communities, building intellectual capital assets, and connecting customers (broadly used) to the organization. Here are some of the people whose opinions I value:

David Weinberger
Shawn Callahan
Patrick Lambe
Tom Davenport
Hubert Saint-Onge
Nick Bontis
Joe Firestone
John Maloney
Karl-Erik Sveiby
Patti Ankalam
Denham Gray
Judith Meskill
Lilia Efimova
Nancy White
Jack Vinson
Amy Jo Kim
Jim McGee
Richard McDermott
Verna Allee

Multiplayer Games
Multiplayer online games (MMOGs) reveal a lot about human nature since a person is hidden behind a keyboard and can assume any form of self-expression they choose.

Though the field is new, some important voices are emerging:
