Web 2.0 applications aim at improving collaboration and interaction between people. These two activities are also important aspects of knowledge management (KM), known as the “socialization” approach. So applying Web 2.0 applications to KM promises to support and improve sharing and creation of knowledge. Yet, little research examining the impact of Web 2.0 on KM has been conducted.

It is investigated how Web 2.0 applications may match different KM practices and a framework for categorizing and discussing these applications is proposed. In addition, an impact model describing how Web 2.0 principles may impact different aspects of KM is created from the findings of the case studies. The findings show how Web 2.0 applications can be used for a number of KM practices mostly

Abstract: Knowledge management principles have traditionally been derived from for-profit organizations but are increasingly being utilized to support the success of non-profits organizations (NPOs). This pilot study examines the knowledge needs of a group of Alberta-based NPOs linked by a hub organization whose purpose is to facilitate knowledge sharing within this community. Résumé: Les principes de gestion des connaissances sont habituellement issus des organisations à but lucratif, mais sont de plus en plus utilisés pour accroître le succès des organisations à but non lucratif (OBNL). Cette étude pilote examine les besoins en savoir d’OBNL albertaines regroupées sous une même organisation mère dont le but est la diffusion du savoir dans la collectivité. 1.
