Abstract
Within the knowledge management arena, two forms of knowledge have been considered, in the aim of implanting systems and align them with the available resources: explicit knowledge and tacit knowledge. In this sense, resources based on information technology have demonstrated a good alignment and have been a great help for storing explicit knowledge and, in some cases, for recovery it. However, when it comes to storing, distributing or sharing tacit knowledge, the same systems offer significant limitations.
