As I read the various blog entries and listen to the information that we get in all the classes that we are taking I see a key use for knowledge management – sense making. A lot of the times we hear information and we do not process it. I believe that km helps the individual grasp aspects of the knowledge that they have or can obtain in day to day situations. For example, in a meeting you would have someone who writes down the notes, questions, decision, and highlights of the meeting. With this information you can now understand how productive the meeting was, wheiter it went off topic, was there something raised that interests you (or the organization), and so forth. All KM is to me is a network of transfering and processing information from various sources to a particular source where it could easily be found and managed.
