This from the fine New Zealand Knowledge Management Network (NZKM) - for which I will soon be the official "online community wrangler":

Hello, just a reminder that this Thursday's NZKM Wellington event; 'Web 2.0 and Knowledge Management: Making Knowledge Work' (Tim Barrable, CIO at the Ministry for Culture & Heritage) is being run.

No need to RSVP - just turn up on the day to Archives New Zealand, 10 Mulgrave Street at 12noon.

Utilising Web 2.0 tools in the Enterprise to make Knowledge Management a reality. The Ministry for Culture & Heritage have recently launched their new Web 2.0 Intranet built using DRUPL open source CMS and utilising a number of Web 2.0 tools. They have also started making some changes to their public sites Te Ara:Encyclopedia of New Zealand, NZLive.com and NZHistory .net that utilise some of the same community building tools.
