Topics about different subjects could be linked to other channels.<br> <br> The idea is that people viewing the web topic could see who was talking in the channel (want to join in?) and recent traffic in the channel (have something to add?) Could this be a useful application?<br> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002072.html Getting Real with Stowe Tue, 20 Apr 2004 21:46:17 +0100 Had a first chat with <a href="http://www.corante.com/getreal/">Stowe Boyd</a> this evening.&nbsp; Enjoyed it very much despite some troubles with Skype (poor voice quality in one direction or another at various points) which we augmented with IM.&nbsp; We talked about <a href="http://www.evectors.com/itkcollector/">K-Collector</a>, IRC, Wiki, Sense making, Cynefin, social tools and how KM is suffering from <span style="font-style: italic;">fatigue</span>.&nbsp; Thanks Stowe!<br> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002087.html
