Chapter 8 of BlogRoot – Using Blogs in Business. (SOURCE:Scripting News)-An excellent summary of how to use a blog in business! This chapter alone makes the book worth buying.Where are the benefits of using K-Logs in the enterprise? Where does the potential lie? Lots of benefits emerge. Here are a few: * Better documentation of process-shorter audit cycles. * An archive of contributions-when an employee leaves, an archive of their contributions still remains. * Shorter training time-a team could easily ramp up a new team member or new employee by saying, “read our K-Logs, all the documents, thinking, important e-mails, discussions, and process are there.” * Better responsiveness to customer inquiries-help desks can easily find answers to customer questions by searching an intranet K-Log network. * Easier management of decentralized employees-K-Logs make it easy to find out what a specific employee in a remote office is doing right now. * Shorter decision cycles-need an answer to a problem, find an expert that can answer it for you. How? Search for people that write about the keywords you are interested in, read what they have written to qualify their expertise, and contact them directly. Remember, a K-Log is a horizontal tool. It isn’t limited to specific functions. Like a word processor, what you do with it is limited by your creativity. [Roland Tanglao’s Weblog]
