The 13th Australasian Conference of Knowledge Management and Intelligent Decision Support (ACKMIDS) is on at Queensland University of Technology this December, and the call for papers is now open. This year’s theme is Connect | Participate | Act.

The applications of social technologies in the KM space are exciting… I was in a meeting on this very topic today that made me want to start a whole new line of research. I had to remind myself that there’s a limit to how many different projects one person can conceivably manage at one time…

This is a neat concept – what a great idea to have a keynote speaker present using the very tech that underpins the conference theme? (Stay tuned for more on this topic – Kathryn Greenhill and I are working on some [unrelated] research around conference models for library technology conferences, and we’ll shortly be asking you to help us out by completing a survey.)
