Capture and use of tacit knowledge in the form of skills, expertise and experience holds the key for future growth of institutions and individuals. Unseen knowledge that cannot be quantified far out weighs the explicit type and hence the popular expression "explicit islands in a tacit sea". If the cumulative knowledge of a professional is captured and documented, the entire work flow patterns of the world could change in a revolutionary manner. Efforts are now on in this direction and it is hoped that we would soon find ways to do this.
