“Web 2.0 is of course a piece of jargon, nobody even knows what it means. If Web 2.0 for you is blogs and wikis, then that is people to people. But that was what the Web was supposed to be all along.”Tim Berners Lee

“if Web 1.0 is symbolized by Encyclopaedia Britannica and similar expert organizations, Web 2.0 is about Wikipedia, and content generated by users who may or may not know what they are talking about.”Tom Landry, CTO Adesso Systems

But not without governance and weeding.

Wiki’s - a lightweight tool that enables rapid content build and may be vastly simpler than the organisational “intranet”.

Ease of creation can easily create knowledge landfills.

Enduring KM is demand led.

Great value as content publishing tool for PSLs and allocated governance. Lawyers are predominantly consumers not authors.
Great for building, where that fits culture, but cannot depend on network effect for accuracy.
Clearer fit in back office where less risk and baked into jobs.

Need to address relationship with other internal web content.

Forrester
"What we recommend is to start with a very specific problem and work your way up from there. For example with a wiki, you can't have everyone try to use it at once. You should start on one team individually and then move on when that team is successful."
"Web 2.0 not critical 'must have' for any company at this point, but it's more than likely that your competition is using it and is showing faster results because of it,"

Experiment and review.
Avoid proliferation of low quality.

In web 2.0, old KM learnings still apply...
Content takes effort and investment to create and to maintain.
It is more about practice leadership than tools, but the tools are getting easier which may change priorities.
KM people are essential to helping with what’s possible, good practice and the importance of governance.
