Winter 2002: Weblogs, part II: A Swiss Army website?
Because weblogs handle text, images, and other media, they are by definition a kind of information management system for "capturing, organizing, manipulating, and accessing information" [5]. Many groups and individuals, including the IU, are looking at ways to use and improve how weblogs can be used for this. The ability of weblog software to provide automatic and consistent date-based archiving, persistently assigned URLs, and interoperable workspaces, has sparked much recent discussion about ways that weblogs can be used as content management systems (CMS) "to manage the content of a web site" [6], and for knowledge management (KM) to "consciously and comprehensively" gather, organize, share, and analyze "knowledge in terms of resources, documents, and people skills" [7].
