Open Source Knowledge Management (Wikis) for Your Law Firm

By Sara Skiff | Friday, August 19, 2005

Coming August 23, 2005 to TechnoFeature: You may have heard of Wikipedia, the collaborative online encyclopedia, but what exactly is a wiki and how can one help your firm? When someone in your firm leaves, most likely some of their professional knowledge goes with them. Some departments may develop manuals for complex procedures, and many lawyers keep personal notes. But what if you could collect all that information in one place, readily accessible to everyone in your office? In this article, open source advocate and all-around tech guru Eric Skiff discusses the use of wikis for law firm knowledge management. Learn how to create, develop, and maintain an "internal wiki" and discover the many benefits for your firm.
