The Semantic Web 3.0 is just one example of this.

Has KM died, and resurrected as social computing? http://www.ebizlib.com/has_km_died_and_resurrected_as_social_computing-archive.html Library clipshttp://libraryclips.blogsome.com/2008/07/21/has-km-died-and-resurrected-as-social-computing/ [Library clips] I don’t need to go back to university and study knowledge management from textbooks when I learn about it everyday in the blogosphere. In fact I bet I would be frustrated and want to take the class, sure the teacher may know the history .

Enterprise 2.0, What, Why, and Knowledge Management http://www.ebizlib.com/enterprise_20_what_why_and_knowledge_management-archive.html Word of Piehttp://wordofpie.wordpress.com/2008/07/21/enterprise-20-what-why-and-knowledge-management/ [Word of Pie] Too much information can be a problem.  Information needs to be transformed into knowledge.  With structured data, this can be done through reports and business intelligence tools.  With unstructured data, aka CONTENT, this is best done by people tagging and collecting.  As search technology matures, it will be able to do this for us, at least better than it does now.  This is an old-fashioned Knowledge Management goal.

An Essay on Knowledge Management http://www.ebizlib.com/an_essay_on_knowledge_management-archive.html A1essays[A1essays] KM is very difficult mechanism to define that academicians and practitioners take it differently, depending on their interests and disciplines. However, to establish a firm ground to stand on, we would define KM, according to Information Management Journal (2000), as “an interdisciplinary field that is concerned with systematic, effective management and utilization of an organization’s knowledge resources.” To simplify what KM is better, let us use the metaphor made by Meredith Levinson (2008).

In other words, anyone today can write a blog, create knowledge, disseminate it, and anyone can read anyone's blog, interact with the blog (through RSS Feeds, and Comments), and absorb what the author of the blog is saying (simplistic example).
