At Online Information 2007 in London on 4th December, I gave a keynote talk entitled "KM2.0: KM goes Social" where I take a brief look at the history of KM and where it might be heading given the impact of Social Tools. Other people you might wish to read on this subject are Dave Snowden and Dave Pollard but also see Delicious and Technorati.
I am not overly keen on the KM2.0 label (Dave Pollard actually dubs it KM0.0 ) or the term Social KM but it does not matter what we call it too much right now - the fact is that Social Computing will have a huge impact on the way we practice KM and its future evolution.
Here are the slides; an audio interview with Dick Kaser of Information Today and the paper that went with my talk.
