KnowledgeCenter software is a flexible
set of knowledge-sharing tools that enables people with common
interest in virtually any subject to combine, organize, evaluate,
and access the collective knowledge, experience and opinions
of a group. The system works by gathering and collating content,
ratings and pro & con commentary into self-organizing knowledge
bases that can then be custom sorted to match individual measures
of value or reliability.
The heart of the Knowledge Center
software is the "Knowledge Navigation Console". The
console window allows users to access postings and a visual display
of the combined ratings that other people have given the posting.
Below the main window, scrollable lists of comments provide for
unlimited group feedback on each posting. The comments are divided
into supporting comments, opposing comments and additional information.
This allows the system to quantify and sort contents by support
level as well as aggregate multiple-criteria ratings. Each list
of comments is automatically sorted by its own agreement level
rating, allowing the strongest arguments on both sides of any
issue to appear side-by-side below the posting itself (V2.0).
Instant email links facilitate peer-to-peer communication and
the creation of loyal online communities.
