Abstract
Companies are increasingly looking at new technology to overcome the toughest challenge of successful knowledge management, namely to encourage people to share the knowledge in their heads with others. Blogs, online diaries, and wikis – where people can change or add things on websites – are being used more and more by employees to share information with other people who are interested in specific subjects. For knowledge management to work well the applications must be integrated with that which users do on their computers on a daily basis. The good news is that organisations do not have to spend a fortune on specific knowledge management software, but can think innovatively about available technologies and use them in new ways to achieve knowledge management goals.
