However, the consensus is that harnessing Web 2.0 features for Knowledge Management is still in its infancy and according to some it seems that Web 2.0 success in the social sphere is hard to translate to the work context.

Abstract:
This thesis contributes to knowledge-based view literature by proposing a novel approach to the integration of two key perspectives in knowledge management: the objectivist and practice-based perspectives. This integration can provide the basis for the adoption and use of information and communication technology (ICT) tools for the sharing and integration of knowledge. This integrative approach is aligned with the knowledge-based view of the firm and can provide valuable opportunities for the transfer of knowledge. The objectivist perspective has thus met with limited success due to the inhere

It also identifies who is most likely to use these tools and who is most likely to perceive that they are useful.
