John Robb writes a lot about "K-logging," which is short for "knowledge logging", which is the phrase John uses for a sort of tightly-focused weblogging. John promotes "K-logging" as a partial solution to knowledge management in corporate culture.
Some of the stuff that John writes is right-on and easy to agree with. Some of it is, in my opinion, totally off-the-wall.
Jim Roepcke has taken one of John's recent pieces and responded to it in piecemeal fashion. His basic points are:
I know I'm being boring, but I agree with most everything he's said. I have a lot more to say on the subject, especially about email, but no time to say it right now. Go read Jim's comments.
Hopefully, John will take Jim's words in the way I believe he intends them: constructive criticism.

I feel a full essay coming on, but I do have one comment to make vis a vis Conversant. In the next month or two I am going to test out a project management system for my site editors that incorporates a project weblog, idea courtesy Jon Udell. I can guarantee that my comembers in the system have the tools they need to participarte right this second, because e-mail, web access, and NNTP access are universal. (The last perhaps least so.) For that matter, I do not have to download Radio to access Conversant from my work, something I am sure the computer guy at my company would appreciate. If he ever gets over believing the supervisors are idiots who exist solely to break things.
Anything that requires me to add a new tool has to do double work--not only must it be very easy to use, its value beyond current tools must be very obvious. Worse, Instant Outlining suffers from trying to send information over a system--instant messaging--that does not have a standard the way e-mail or the web has a standard. Until I can connect AIM or ICQ to someone's I/O, why should I bother to use it? For the joy of being an early adopter?
