| Summary: | This study explores problems related to knowledge sharing in the Information Age
and attempts to provide a solution for them. The primary problem revolves around
how locating the relevant information we're looking for online is becoming harder
since it is not well organized and quickly accessible within the vast internet. In
addition to that, there is more "noise" available than useful quality content. The
research delves into the use of blogging as a fast,' up-and-coming meansof knowledge
and quality content sharing amongst communities of bloggers with similar interests.
Knowledge sharing implies a bi-directional exchange of information. To read blogs is
not enough. One must start a blog and engage other bloggers with shared interests.
Therefore the study and methodology of conducting it involves implementing a blog
(usingthe opensource blogging platform WordPress), promoting it to those interested
in the topics it covers, socializing online with a community of like-minded bloggers,
and at the end measuringthe usefulness of blogging as a means of knowledge sharing
by analyzing blog participation. The implemented blog for the purpose of this study
is located at www.PassionBasedLearning.com and the blog's topic is about learning,
knowledge management and personal development. |
