Cover article in the Intercom: The flexible Intranet
The March edition of the Intercom features my article about using knowledge technology for more effective intranet sites as the cover article. In this article - "The Flexible Intranet" - I examined the typical problems found in a corporate intranet site and demonstrated how knowledge-driven design can improve the effectiveness of intranet sites. In the article I used the example of a helpdesk that delivers support for mobile phones. With this example I demonstrated how an effective intranet site guides the helpdesk employee toward the information and presents the answers to the questions they are confronted with.
