I work very hard to not make a mistake when it comes to managing my communities. Attention to detail is extremely important to me and I lead by example. Because of that effort, and that care, I limit mistakes a great deal. But, I do make them.
Today, I want to share a [...]]]></description>

Pretty much every active, moderately read blog is a community. Most large blogs are large communities. In fact, forget the word blog, look at online publications in general. If they have traction, they have community. Even if they don&#8217;t have strong community features, a community manager or any of those things.

It has always been about community. It didn&#8217;t become about community with the popularization of the internet and social media. It&#8217;s easier to build community and it&#8217;s easier for everyone to have a voice, but that&#8217;s not the invention of community.
No, community has always been there. Community isn&#8217;t a choice. It was [...]]]></description>
