The purpose of this paper is to identify the usefulness of Weblog genre analysis in knowledge creation within an organization where communications are occurred frequently among the employees with information and communication technologies (ICTs). Knowledge creation is essential to achieve competitive advantage in today's knowledge-oriented working environments. There has been huge investment on knowledge management systems to achieve such advantages. It is, however, widely recognized that distributed knowledge management systems often fail due to the different social contexts across the sub-organizations where the local information systems are deployed. It is important to coordinate such social gaps across the sub-organizations to achieve better advantages. Given that Weblogs users often feel a shared social norm. Weblogs playa positive role of narrowing the social gaps. This paper argues that the genre analysis of Web logs could provide important clues to narrow the social gaps existed across the sub-organizations within an organization. Hence, such taxonomical practice may be a solution for the high rate of failure in knowledge management system implementations in an organization. This paper uses the theory of organizational knowledge creation (Nonaka & Takeuchi. 1995) and social construction of technology (SCOT) approach (Bijker, 1995) to compare the socialized with the non-socialized integration of distributed information systems. The findings of this research provide a useful framework for better implementing knowledge management practices especially in distributed working environments.

최근 들어 인터넷 게시판이나 개인 블로그 등은 온라인상에서 사람들의 정보 공유나 의견 교환의 중요한 매체가 되고 있다. 많은 수의 블로그들은 현재 사회적으로 이슈가 되는 여러 문제들을 반영하고 있다. 또한 최근 댓글을 통해 적극적으로 자신의 의사 표현하거나 다른 사람들의 의견을 살피는 인터넷 사용자의 증가로 인터넷 뉴스나 블로그 기사에 많은 수의 댓글이 달리고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 블로그나 인터넷 포털 사이트의 경우 기사나 댓글들을 순차적인 목록 형태로 제공하므로 자신이 원하는 내용의 댓글을 검색하거나 전체 댓글에 대한 전반적인 파악은 힘든 일이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기사에 달린 많은 수의 댓글들을 분류하고, 이를 시각화 하는 시스템인 TRIB(Telescope for Responding comments for Internet Blog)을 제안한다. TRIB은 미리 정의된 사용자 정의 사전을 이용하여 댓글을 내용에 따라 분류하여 시각화 하므로 사용자들은 자신의 관심과 흥미에 따라 개인화 된 뷰를 볼 수 있다. 1,000개 이상의 댓글을 가진 뉴스 기사들을 대상으로 한 실험을 통해 TRIB 시스템의 댓글 분류와 시각화 성능을 보인다.

This study examined the trends and issues of social media campaign studies from three aspects-campaign strategy, institutional environment regulating the social media, and political effect. Then, this study performed an empirical analysis on the case of the 20th general election in order to discuss the political effect, which has been analyzed the least. Specifically, this study empirically examined the trends of candidates' participation in the twitter campaign, the partial mobilization and voter response, and the platform effect on the election results. The study examined all of the candidates' twitter accounts and traffic and found the following results.-first, the number of participants in the twitter campaign increased significantly compared to the 19th general election, and the campaign was dominated by only two political parties that had more power to mobilize resources; second, it was clearly identified that twitter is a partisan media. where specifically, those in the mainstream of the Democratic Party mobilized much more supporters; and lastly, the twitter campaign has a positive impact on the increase in the rate of votes and chances of winning the election. Particularly, the number of followers and the duration of activities were found statistically meaningful, proving that promotion of networking and social capital is more important in election campaigns.
