Just a small announcement.
Today I confirmed that I’ll be speaking at one of Australia’s (if not the world’s) best knowledge management conferences – actKM.
It’s a highly-regarded event and some of the best KM people in the world will be attending – Dave Snowden, David Gurteen and my friends Matt Moore and Matthew Hodgson. These people [...]

Sean Dennehy and Don Burke, both CIA intelligence analysts, openly discussed the work they are doing (without giving away the detail, obviously) on Intellipedia. Sean was a great, enthusiastic presenter, who was definitely a great choice for the conference – a great walking ad for the intel community.

Dion Hincliffe, Founder and CTO of Hinchcliffe and Co, well-known Enterprise 2.0 and Web 2.0 blogger and creator of the Web 2.0 University was the presenter for this session.

Well, I didn’t get a huge number of entries for the free pass to the Enterprise 2.0 Executive Forum in Sydney on 19 February, but those we got were pretty good and sometimes funny. I’ve decided that the winner is Jodie Miners. Here’s her entry (submitted via Twitter):

I’d love to go because I believe I’m [...]

Through a little serendipity, acidlabs has ended up as a partner for the Enterprise 2.0 Executive Forum in Sydney on 19 February 2008. In the words of the Future Exploration Network, who are hosting the conference, it is:
An intensive half-day summit giving detailed executive perspectives on how Web 2.0 technologies can create value inside [...]

I’ve read Matthew’s response to Shawn’s response to Matthew’s response to Shawn’s original post. Plus Dave Snowden’s mind-blowing response to both Shawn and Matthew.
I have to say, I still agree with Matthew. Identifying both knowledge work and workers is and remains crucial. I think Shawn’s false dichotomy argument is spurious; he seems to want to [...]
