Excess capacity is a good thing - Knowledge Jolt with Jack
My take on information overload and general "personal effectiveness" has always been to start with the individual and then look out to the system.
Informal Learning 2.0 — Internet Time Blog

Learnscapes are the factory floor of knowledge organizations. The “scape” part underscores the need to deal at the level of the learning environment or ecology. The old focus on events such as workshops won’t cut it in the ever-changing swirl produced by networks. The “learn” part highlights the importance of baking the principles of sound learning into that environment rather than leaving it to chance.
A modern learning ecology embraces departments and disciplines that were once considered separate functions: training, independent study, collaboration, knowledge management, corporate communications, organizational development, communities of practice, leadership development, expertise location and social media. The corporation’s values, standards and investments define the structure of the ecology within which people are granted the freedom to act.
Corporations can create superior learnscapes by injecting practices that foster optimal learning: drip-feeding, interaction, ease of access, timely reinforcement, peer coaching, respect for reflection, setting standards, cognitive apprenticeship and so on.
conversation matters: Where Knowledge Management Has Been and Where It Is Going- Part Three
Green Chameleon » The War Between Awareness and Memory
A pace layering view helps to sort out a spectrum of possibilities, from looking after awareness needs (which faster, more fragmented, more context-bound tools provide) through to socialisation tools (thanks Olivier) which strengthen inter-personal connections, trust-warrants for where is good to pay attention to, and knowledge flows; then we pass through collaboration (eg wikis) into more reflective solidification of knowledge assets, whether for near term use (documents) or long term memory (records).
Matching activities supported by a weblog to different stages of idea development — Mathemagenic
In the study of my logging practices (Chapter 3) I looked at my weblog from two perspectives: focusing on its uses as a personal knowledge base (using insights from the research on personal information management to identify those) and the ways it supports the process of growing ideas over time (awareness and articulation, sense-making and turning them into a product). The table below matches those, summarising how different stages of idea development are supported by the activities around the weblog content: low-threshold creation of entries; a flexible and personally meaningful way to organise and maintain them; opportunities to retrieve, reuse and analyse blog content, and to engage with others around it.
Harold Jarche » Effective knowledge sharing
We should move away from central digital information repositories (KM, Doc Mgt, LCMS, etc.). I’m not advocating tearing down any existing IT infrastructure; just enabling a parallel system, which may exist already, to grow. Some suggestions:
* Develop measures that can help experienced knowledge workers capture and make sense of their knowledge.
How to Save the World - Friday, April 10, 2009 What's Next After Knowledge Management? A Scenario
Transform your structure - Knowledge Jolt with Jack
# Make the move from hierarchies to networks once and for all.
# Make the cultural shift from silos and knowledge hoarding to openness and knowledge sharing.
# Move from slow, random learning to a systemized approach for fast learning.
# Become fixated on systemic improvements rather than point solutions.
# Move from saying, "That'll never work here," to "Let's find a way to make it work."

Since it’s something people ask from me once in a while - a list of research papers on business/corporate/employee blogging (primarily those where actual uses of weblogs are studied), abstracts included.
