5. When we discussed enterprise systems in class, one of the types we briefly discussed were Knowledge Management Systems and Knowledge Management (you may have to do a quick Google search on KM and KM systems). Briefly explain what KM is and how KM is supposed to work in organizations. Additionally, when we look at collaboration (a key to KM), we have seen social networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn and other similar sites allow people to communicate, share, and keep in touch with each other and groups over large distances. Discuss how these types of social networks could be used as a knowledge-sharing tool within a KM program. I am not looking for their use in marketing or customer outreach. What I am looking for is your opinion on how these kinds of sites might be used in place of more expensive KM systems or as a means of complimenting an organizational KM system or program.
