About this Blog

So, you might now know a bit about me and you’re wondering what this blog is going to be about? Well, the short answer is that I plan to cover a variety of topics inspired by my years of work in the knowledge management and content management domains. My posts will mostly be a reflection upon my own learnings and also occasionally (hopefully often?) some useful novel ideas for you to consider in your own enterprise.

To given you a sense of what that means, here are some topics I’m planning for future posts:

• The content management lifecycle and how I see its relationship to a full content management solution for an enterprise
• Novell’s knowledge management architecture and how it relates to our content management solution
• The components of searchability (or is that findability?)
• Managing a taxonomy and guidelines for such
• Using a taxonomy within an enterprise
• Types of taxonomies and how they are used
• Communities of practice infrastructure and metrics
• Search at Novell (including how we manage and enhance our search, how we manage our “best bets”, how we manage responsibilities for search and other exciting aspects!)
• A discussion of how a taxonomy can be the “glue” in an enterprise dashboard
• Folksonomy and tagging within the enterprise
• Social bookmarking within the enterprise
• Search logs and taxonomies (including “taxonomizing your search logs” – a term I picked up from Marilyn Chartrand of Kaiser Permanente at Enterprise Search Summit West 2007)
• The role of a content architect in an enterprise
• The use of blogs and wikis within the enterprise (along with RSS!)

And probably a host of other topics along the way. A lot of things to write about and share and I hope you find it interesting!
