Knowledge
workers?
• Searching for answers to
our questions? From
people and systems?
• Thinking together to create
answers to problems?
• Making Sense from huge
amounts of messages,
documents, data…?

meet, to learn…

pay it!

Paradise,
• Every team and community
has a virtual office to
collaborate, dialogue and
learn

present
• There are good common
facilities: search,
communication, navigation…

6. In Virtual
Hell,
• You must wait months for your
virtual office and it is not
adapted to your way of work
• All facilities are in different
places with different user
interfaces
• Your virtual office building has
no navigation aids, and looks
like a graveyard of abandoned
offices
• Your search engine seems to
look only in the recycle bin
