Presenting our Know and Go series: Bite-sized information to help you start and improve your social knowledge management strategy
We've put together a new educational resource to help organizations begin, plan, manage, and improve their social knowledge management strategies. Our "Know and Go" webcast series is designed to give you the latest information on the trends and topics that will help shape your organization's social knowledge management strategy, all in a “bite-sized” format.
The best part is, they're on demand. Grab them whenever you need guidance. We made them for quick, easy viewing and sharing. And as an aside, this program will be launched officially in a few weeks. But we wanted to give our blog readers advanced notice of our first webcast. (Perks of being part of the Inmagic community! :))
Chris Brown, Content and Knowledge Management Consultant for Inmagic, hosts "Knowledge Management 2.0: Enterprise Social Networking and Social Knowledge Management." In this webcast, Chris covers best practices for socializing your organization's content.
New enterprise social networking technologies are beginning to gain adoption. But before you know what solution will fit your organization's needs -- or if your organization is even ready for this kind of technology -- you'll need to answer crucial questions, including:

New enterprise social networking technologies are beginning to gain adoption. But before you know what solution will fit your organization's needs -- or if your organization is even ready for this kind of technology -- you'll need to answer crucial questions, including:
- Will your knowledge management needs be properly addressed by simply connecting people to people? Or do you need to connect people to the information and content that will help them -- and your organization -- become more effective?
- Can you wait for your social network to reach critical mass before you realize value and organizational impact?
- What role should social media play in your overall content and knowledge management strategy?
How social media adds value to your company's knowledgebase
I contributed an article to ITWorld that covers the capabilities that social media technology can add to an organization's knowledge repository by using a social knowledge network (SKN). However, when planning your SKN, it's crucial the initiative not be viewed just as a social networking project -- because it's not. It's based on enterprise knowledge management principles. In my article I give five recommendations for extracting maximum cost benefits from your SKN. Click over to check it out. And thanks to ITWorld for publishing my piece!
Inmagic reports positive results in third quarter 2009
A lot of positive things have been going on here at Inmagic these past several months, and we thought we'd share the news in a round-up press release. Some of the latest organizations to adopt Presto and Presto for Social Libraries are the Canadian Tax Foundation, Nisqually Indian Tribe, and the San Francisco Symphony. Software Magazine named us to its list of the world’s 500 largest software and service providers, and Edison Venture Fund recently provided the company with a follow-on investment to support our expansion.
