Since blogs have comments, and forums have discussions threads, a knowledge object such as a blog post can be discussed and become something more valuable.
In contrast adding an email or word document to a folder in an EDMS becomes static information, there is no space to enrichen the content. And of course I’m talking about documents where the content is about anecdotes, tips, experiences…knowledge sharing type of
content.

- t really hones in on the benefits of knowledge sharing with blogs as opposed to putting a document in a database, and the shorter time it takes to find information, due to you being aware of having more of an idea where to find this information as you grow with these blogs everyday…these blogs may point to gems in the Document Management System (DMS), so they are a quality filter as well.
  Plus, reading blogs makes you aware of people, rather than faceless DMS’s or as opposed to documents, if you are aware a person is an expert in one topic (as you read their blog daily), it may be worth asking if they can be of assistance on a closely related topic, or they could point you in the right direction…all these connections is said to make a more agile workplace. By connecting with the person and discussing you may get an answer that may not of existed in a document or blog post, the important part is to know who to ask rather than searching and searching…Anecdote call this process “social indexing”.
- New comers can read up on the blogosphere and get a feel for the enterprise culture, they can immediately connect and be heard, have a presence.
- Sure I can subscribe to a blog and leave a comment or trackback, but that’s it…what if I could subscribe to that person, not only can I read their content and discuss, but within the same dashboard I can IM, private message, comment wall, see their connections, etc…from a fan to a relationship.
- Since social networks require a profile page and you can tag your own interests, they double up as an expert locator…find experts by how they describe themselves, then check out their profile to see projects they have been on, forum and blog posts, CoP membership, etc…
- For now try an effective tool like Ning, it’s a social network that has a blog space and forums, so here you could have a CoP that has a social network in it, this way you can use the traditional forum, but you also have your own soapbox
- When I post to my personal blog space, I’d like to be able to choose if I want to send it to any of my CoP blogs.
