Knowledge Tools – Everything that has got to do with the various Learning & Knowledge tools available on the Internet that would help promote the exchange and sharing of knowledge and expertise.

I just wish that Patrick Lambe would be on Twitter. I surely do! That man has got plenty of golden nuggets to share around the topics of Knowledge Sharing, Collaboration, Communities, Learning and Enterprise 2.0 to just be scattered around in multiple blog posts alone. Here and there. He has been one of my favourite KM … Continue reading Why Is Knowledge Sharing Important? A Matter of Survival
Usually, weekends, as most of you already know, are rather quiet over here in this blog and in most of my virtual social networking hang-out places. More than anything else, because I use that time to unwind properly; to chill out, relax, charge some batteries from that week at work and, eventually, connect with my … Continue reading A World Without E-mail: One Man’s Vision of a Social Workplace – Wear Sunscreen
I love it when it happens! You know, that “Serendipity Doing Its Magic” thing. It just happened once again!

Yes, in … Continue reading The Business Case for Enterprise Social Bookmarking: $4.6 Million a Year in Cost Savings!

Excellent! Then you are ready to build and sustain an online community, because that’s what it … Continue reading CommunityBuilders – Building and Sustaining On-Line Communities by Steve Dale
Yesterday I put together a blog post where I tried to share some further insights on how if today’s current corporate world would want to survive in the 21st century, it would probably need to start thinking about how to bring back again into the workplace the fun factor. Today’s knowledge workers surely are becoming … Continue reading How Playing Games at Work Will Help You Build Trust for Your Business
It has been a while now since the last progress report I have shared over here around the topic of living “A World Without Email“, that experiment that has been going on for over 2.5 years now, where one day I decided to give up on corporate email altogether and, instead, make heavier use of … Continue reading A World Without Email — Year 3, Weeks 24 to 28 (Email Is Where Knowledge Goes to Die – The Presentation)
Why can’t we all have fun while at work? I mean, some serious good fun while we are getting the job done! Don’t you think it is fair? I mean, don’t you think that knowledge workers should be entitled to have just as much fun behind the firewall as outside of the firewall? Don’t you … Continue reading The Conference Call – Fun at Work or Fun in Work?
Once again, I keep struggling with being connected while travelling on business trips. I guess very little has changed in the last few years … Specially, if it is abroad, outside of the reach from my 3G card(s) which would only work in Spain and for which I wouldn’t want to expose them to massively … Continue reading MacBook Pro – The Down to Earth Experience
