The Hague KM
Sort of dating place for KM-ers in and around The Hague. Goal is to organize having lunch or drinks together and YOU are invited to do something KM-ish :-)
Nancy White commented on Nancy White's group 'Online Peer Assist Experiments'"I learned a lot from everyone, but I confess, I was a bit disappointed that more KM4Dev members did not chime in as there is a ton of knowledge in this area. I think we all are starved for time, so paying full attention is still a challenge!!!"

What KM4Dev members say...
"I feel so moved by all the positive reactions I received every day since I posted my request. Just as if I have numerous secret hidden friends ready to give a hand ! It's a feeling not easy to express ; the kind of strength you sense when you're not alone and that makes you dare and never afraid of taking new challenges... merci beaucoup."
