Weblog or Blog is normally used for online storytelling. Many people publish their blogs to tell their thoughts, opinions, life experience or latest news. From a business perspective, blogs are also used in promote products, services and provide customers with technical support. Likewise, blogs are used as a new communication medium in university online communities. However, the use of blogs for knowledge management is a new area of research.
I am currently doing my research on how blogs are used for sharing knowledge as part of my Masters Dissertation at the University of Western Australia. This study explores the cultural differences and social capital effects on bloggers’ behaviours when participating in the university’s blog community. Please take 10-15 minutes to participate in this survey as it will contribute to new perspectives in the study of knowledge management.
