Review of Eric Von Hippel's "Democratizing Innovation" which looks at the spread of user-inspired and user-created innovations throughout all industries. What creates it? What sustains it?
There are a lot of interesting conversations happening recently about knowledge management and the value of knowledge sharing or knowledge collecting and what it all means. KM is about taking action.
Steven Wieneke has been active in the KM scene for quite some time. I discovered a whilte paper entitled, Success in any Economy, which talks about the value of BOTH written knowledge (explicit) and personal know how.
Peter Klein at Organizations and Markets has a thoughtful piece on seeming over-abundance of discussion of tacit knowledge. Interesting perspective.
The classic problem of knowledge management is that most knowledge is tacit / implicit, but KM Systems want us to get things written out and "into the system." But getting things into the open has value in itself.
