Is Your Library Blogging Yet?:
Blogs aren’t just for marketing – there are many areas of the business where they can help improve information flow, reduce clutter and avoid the dreaded ‘but I didn’t know about that’ situation. Here’s ten ways that we’ve used blogs for managing projects – both internally and with our clients.
At my last fulltime gig, I tried to sell the idea of weblogs as a knowledge management solution and my peers as a way of breaking through the oral culture, the lack of easily accessible information (I didn’t know we even had time sheets for my first 6 weeks or so, that’s how bad it was: got paid anyway, so you get a sense of how rigorous the processes were).
This might be a good question to start asking on interviews: not “do you blog?” but something more general about self-publishing and decentralized knowledge management within a consistent architecture.
