Social media technology is changing the rules of knowledge management but for any information manager charged with understanding how these new technologies integrate with content and knowledge management initiatives, the challenge remains the same.

Attend a free Webinar that will demonstrate how to kick-off a social knowledge management strategy inside the firewall. Presented by Inmagic, The Gilbane Group, and KMWorld Magazine, the Webinar will teach attendees about gaining buy-in, getting started, identifying and avoiding unexpected hazards, securing the knowledgebase, measuring and maximizing ROI.

Green, Chief Technology Officer of Inmagic, Larry

Moore, Publisher of KMWorld.

"Most organizations using social technology today are using consumer-oriented tools, such as blogging, Google Docs, Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr, and see these initiatives as separate from their content and knowledge management initiatives," says Phil Green, Chief Technology Officer of Inmagic.

"These tools were designed to facilitate the creation of communities, but adoption inside the enterprise has been slow because they operate as a silo unto themselves, detached from critical content and information assets. A socialized knowledge repository can securely consolidate information silos, improve content quality, and increase employee productivity--all in ways not possible through consumer-facing applications."
