  • Using a wiki platform, the international law firm made it easy to create and maintain "subwebs".
  • Using a wiki platform, the international law firm made it easy to create and maintain "subwebs". Subwebs are microsites on the firm's intranet, devoted to a specific subject such as a specialty within a practice or key client information. Headshift helped the firm explore how to broaden the participation in providing subweb content and how to move away from a process that required pages to be prepared individually in FrontPage, a web page design tool.
  • Headshift recommended an enterprise wiki platform, customised to feature dynamic navigation and designed to match the intranet look-and-feel.

  • The wiki is the first step of the firm's adoption of social tools behind the firewall. There are plans to roll out a firm-wide RSS infrastructure and an enterprise blogging platform, supported by a business case to simplify the publishing process for internal and external current awareness content

KM Space: Wikis at The Rosen Law Firm - 0 views

  • Lee Rosen, the president of Rosen Law Firm, took a few minutes to talk with me about his firm's experience with wikis.Rosen is replacing his Lotus Notes platform with an externally hosted wiki from PBWiki. You may have read about the cash prize contest he ran for his employees in a story on CNN.com: Boosting Teamwork with Wikis.
  • Lee was drawn to the concept of using a wiki because of its purported simplicity. He found it much easier to develop and add content.
  • The firm started with the free version of PBWiki and had their wiki up and running in minutes. Some of his administrators worked with the wiki for a few months to see its functionality and how it might work within the firm. Then others in the firm started asking to join and it took off.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Over the last year, his firm has created three to four thousand pages in the wiki. Lee estimates that 60% of his employees make at least one change to the wiki each day.
  • Lee really likes the flexibility of the wiki platform. People can work in the wiki the way that they want to work. Of course, that has lead to some disagreements over the way to organize content.
  • Lee sees a conflict between the need for rules and the freedom to contribute. There are places where the wiki is not organized in a way that works for him. But it does work for others.
  • Lee also likes that the wiki is externally hosted. He lets PBwiki worry about keeping the server up and all the "plumbing" headaches. He wants to be out of the IT business.
  • One of his biggest issues is keeping the wiki in people's minds as a way to communicate. It takes some time for people to realize that they can communicate through the wiki. Lee still sees lots of email communication that could be better handled in the wiki. They are also still transitioning some of the content from Lotus Notes into the wiki.

Portals and KM: Wikis in Knowledge Management at Law Firms - Part Two: Sharepoint Example - 0 views

  • Here are my notes on the second part of the following session on wikis in knowledge management. It covers a Sharepoint example.
  • This firm already had Sharepoint which offers a wiki so they made use of this option. The wiki use cases include: meeting management, project management, knowledge discovery and sharing, as well as knowledge management. The Sharepoint wiki provides ease of use. The categories work well and provide good ability to create them for wiki pages. The categories work like tagging. They also use RSS on all the wikis for updates.
  • There are currently a couple of problems with the wiki.
