- eGov AU - Craig Thomler's professional blog - eGovernment and Gov 2.0 thoughts and speculations from an Australian perspective, Friday, October 29, 2010. "... When it comes to online knowledge, government departments are constantly striving to achieve a balance between access to knowledge and minimisation of risks such as hacking, viruses and theft of information.

- DocumentCloud - What is it?
- "DocumentCloud will be software, a Web site, and a set of open standards that will make original source documents easy to find, share, read and collaborate on, anywhere on the Web. Users will be able to search for documents by date, topic, person, location, etc. and will be able to do "document dives," collaboratively examining large sets of documents. Organizations will be able to do all this while keeping the documents--and readers--on their own sites. Think of it as a card catalog for primary source documents..."

- From 'Need to Know' to 'Need to Share': Tangled Problems, Information Boundaries, and the Building of Public Sector Knowledge Networks - in pdf format (530kb)
- (This document requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader). by Sharon S. Dawes, Anthony M. Cresswell, Theresa A. Pardo. University at Albany, State University of New York. This is an electronic version of an Article published in Public Administration Review, Volume 69, Issue 3 (p 392-402). "The importance and challenges of networking and knowledge sharing for attacking wicked problems have been aptly described by Weber and Khademian in their provocative PAR essay, “Wicked Problems, Knowledge Challenges, and Collaborative Capacity Builders in Network Settings” (March/April 2008). We argue in this essay, however, that a broader category of equally challenging but more commonplace 'tangled' problems lies in a vast middle ground between routine and wicked problems. Think, for example, of the tangle of actors involved in operating a public school or a military base, or the tangle of programs that a social worker must navigate in order to help the families he or she serves. Success in coping with these kinds of challenges ultimately depends on finding ways to overcome the 'need to know' default option in most organizations and moving to a 'need to share' network culture. One way to do so involves the creation of what we call 'public sector knowledge networks' (PSKNs). Unlike other types of networks, PSKNs treat information and knowledge sharing across traditional organizational boundaries as a primary purpose as they try to address public needs that no single organization or jurisdiction can handle alone. PSKNs are sociotechnical systems in which human, organizational, and institutional considerations exist in a mutually influential relationship with processes, practices, software, and other information technologies. They have emerged in tandem with the adoption of advanced networking technologies and the development of e-government..."
