Interesting Results of Weblog Use for KM

Rick Klau over at Tins has had some experience in the last months trying to implement a K-Log at his company. A K-Log is a network of weblogs used for knowledge management. I have always thought that this would be something important for the Chicago Teachers' Center to employ, as knowledge is our most important asset. So far I have not been able to generate much participation. Rick has some intersting insights:

Bottom line: we learned a lot about how we want to share information internally. Noone in the company had a bad experience with their weblog. Some gravitated to it, while others found themselves more as a "consumer" of information rather than a "producer".  This experience provoked a number of excellent conversations about what kind of information would be valuable inside the company. Sales people started thinking about what they did that might be useful for product management; development started thinking about what marketing was working on that might make them more effective.
