Abstract

Just like the personal computer revolution, it is possible that Knowledge Management (KM) will in the 21st century experience a decentralizing revolution that gives more power and autonomy to individuals and self-organized groups. Seven decades after Vannevar Bush’s still unfulfilled vision of the Memex. Levy’s scenario stresses the dire need to provide overdue support tools for knowledge workers in our Knowledge Societies, not at the expense of Organizational KM Systems, but rather as the means to foster a fruitful co-evolution. With a prototype system addressing these issues about to be converted into a viable Personal KM system (PKMS), the author follows up on recent publications and considers the impact and potential of a novel meme-based approach aiming to aid individuals throughout their academic and professional life and as contributors and beneficiaries of organizational performance and in light of the anticipated next generation of KM systems.
