From Laura Bazile in France
When it is time to jump into an online community, there are a few questions for whom answers must be “yes” or you take the risk either to be denied membership or simply go hunting to find out any good reason -once you joined, to stay.
Linking to the event industry, we can afford to imagine that during a show, you actually share the room with peers, in other words, members of your “community”. I have the feeling that you must keep in mind the same demanding requirements stated above, if you want to take profit of the event you are participating in or visiting.
Are you thinking about other essential point that an online community must unveil as soon as you jump in?
Plus, is it fair to argue that an online community should permit itself some cross boundaries as a window to the world outside? This is the topic I would love to share about and get your comments on, via my next post.
