Akismet seems to have blacklisted me and I was trying to get through by changing email .. website ..etc, but these are really redundant - you may want to delete 2 of the 3 as well as this one :-) Thx.

Wikis are not knowledge management systems. The key difference, IMHO, is that KM is all about capturing "knowledge" after-the-fact, and as such is doomed to fail. A wiki, when used properly becomes the primary place to conduct business, and as a by-product, it captures all the information... so, yes, it solves a KM problem, but it's really more than a KM tool.

In turn these nuggets of golden knowledge are left cold and weak." Actually, I would agree to this statement, sans "wikis". See, that's the whole point to me. Knowledge management systems attempt to capture "knowledge" after the fact. A wiki should not be used that way, it should become the platform we conduct our work at; thus it's primary, live, real - not some afterthought. The by-product of the wiki solves a knowledge management problem, but it's not a knowledge management tool. Jevon, I agree with all but this part:
