Do you want wikis with that?

Gartner have just come out with a research note entitled: "KM + Web 2.0 = Productivity and Innovation" - which explicitly links KM programs and Web 2.0 tools but doesn't do much else (keep up at the back there). Meanwhile Forrester have a survey that indicate Firms Use Wikis Mostly For Knowledge Management. The crowd split into three chunks of similar size: those with some wiki implementations, those with plans or pilots; and finally those with no interest at all. As the title suggests, "knowledge management" was the main use for these with collaborative content creation & project management down the scale. Good stuff but this survey highlights the paucity of data about the state of Enterprise 2.0 (or whatever we are calling it this week).
