  • Blogging as part of a personal KM strategy

    I won’t include the entire post here, but you really need to read the entire thread (starting with Cory’s original post, Jenny’s follow-up, and then Jim’s wrap-up). One excerpt from Jim’s piece: When we talk about learning organizations and about knowledge management practices, it can be easy to lose sight of this personal dimension. ……

  • The Square Root Is….

    I’m in San Antonio at the Association of Accounting Marketing conference, and was attending a session on evaluating the success of marketing plans. Given that this is an area of interest to me (if done right, strategic marketing efforts are supported by CRM systems that make the collection, distribution and quality of information much easier and…

  • Navajo Code Talkers Break 60 Years of Silence

    Navajo Code Talkers Break 60 Years of Silence “Their tale begins in 1942. After discovering that U.S. military codes were routinely deciphered by the Japanese, Philip Johnston, a World War I veteran and son of missionaries to Navajo country, suggested devising a system from the ancient language that few Navajos had ever bothered to write…

  • A cool extension to My Weblog Neighborhood

    http://www.pipetree.com/~dj/cgi-bin/ bdexp?url=http://www.rklau.com/tins/ I’m intrigued, as it extends the value of the Weblog Neighborhood to include Blogdex’s info. (And if you’re not already participating in Blogdex, you should be.) More info is at DJ’s weblog.

  • My Weblog Neighborhood

    Update: (corrected URL – one more time!) My Weblog Neighborhood. I haven’t had time to fully digest what it all means, but I now am using the new Blogroll macro to manage my blogroll, and have created my Weblog Neighborhood. Hopefully it’ll sink in later this week.

  • Things that make you say, “Hmmm….”

    I can remember when Arsenio was a threat to Jay – so much so that Leno’s manager, Helen Kushnick, blacklisted any guests that appeared on Arsenio’s show. Now Arsenio is doing guest spots for Jay. (He’s broadcasting tonight from the NBA Finals.) Hmmm….

  • Why Implement Knowledge Management?

    Joy linked to an article written by my buddy John Hokkanen in Managing Partner magazine. But MP Magazine doesn’t publish their content online (at least they don’t try and prevent people from linking to it; they just don’t put it online). So I hopped over to John’s personal site, and saw that John published a…

  • Excited Utterances

    Joy London works with Chris Smith at “BigLaw” (they prefer to keep the name of their firm quiet, which I’ll respect). I discovered her site after seeing a link at Chris’s site, and I’m hooked. Whether it’s the title (“Excited Utterances: More than just an exception to the hearsay rule”) that I find terribly clever (it’s…

  • Fill out those forms

    “Ernie The Attorney sends a comment that answers my desire for an Identity Manager! This may not have everything that you are looking for, but I use it and like it. It’s free and it’s name is….? Roboforms I hope it helps. I can’t imagine living without it. Thank you Ernie! RoboForm looks pretty cool.…

  • Where in the world… are you?

    There are no original ideas anymore. I’ve been thinking about trying to locate other blogs by location – to see who’s in what region, get a feel for how their location might affect their writings, etc. A while back I wrote about getting a group of us Chicago-ans together (I’m very impressed wtih the name…
