Sites to Consider Watching

"The AIIM International Knowledge Center's Knowledge Satellite offers research from the document/content management industry's premier source, Gartner. Each quarter three specially selected research notes are offered as the cornerstone of this market information area."

http://www.gartner.com/webletter/aiim/artcle3/article3.html
"Content Management Meets Knowledge Management" by the Gartner Group, which says, "Realizing maximum value from internal content means balancing CM systems and KM business processes."
