Paper Abstract:      This study utility is trying to understand the possible add value of Websites, Wikis and Weblogs (WW&W) inside organizations. It is not a good investment for enterprises if tools are not quite well tested or if their work or functionalities were not proved. Inside enterprises knowledge diffusion is very important to effective business activities and so new Web technologies and applications can be fundamental but first of all they must be evaluated for the well-sustained acquisition or adoption decision. My main concern is not technical characteristic identification but exploration, evaluation and also identifying possible dynamic between information and knowledge. Analyzing these applications I have tried to evaluate if they can be useful for Communities of Practice (CoPs) and so for the Knowledge Management (KM) inside organizations. I expect to observe some pros and cons from these tools applications to better identify choices, procedures and possible solutions. I suggest two possible conceptual tools: a new conceptual tool for better data, information and knowledge management for WW&W and a new conceptual application to manage WW&W.
