Even the Scientometrics shows a dip around 00. Not much of one, but to those of us not directly in that industry I think it seemed more severe than it was. Of course most of us were probably more worried about the dot.bomb than we were about KM at the time. Good think the KM people weren't paying attention to the rest of us.
I haven't read any papers from back then but I'd be interested to see how much the whole 2.0 movement is changing the way the KM practitioners are thinking about KM.

It's funny to find this post when I just saw another that shows citations for papers that reference KM: http://scientometrics.wordpress.com/2007/06/28/...

I've seen other citation-related articles which showed KM dropping off in the early 00's, and then rebounding. The Scientometrics article just shows a constant increase.

I first related to this on a personal level as began to read, which made me giggle as I pictured a sort of tabbed file system in my brain. So I read on. I'm now going to have to add another tab (which of course have the topics scrawled on them in red sharpie) entitled, KM.
Thanks.... this was fun.
