I’m fortunate to have been able to experiment over the past year. Much of building community is common sense.

The only way to answer the question ‘will it work’ is to engage.

And this statement is totally true too:
Many companies and Social Media consultants dramatically underestimate the resources, time, dedication, and passion it takes to engage and cultivate relationships across multiple communities.

I’m very fortunate to work with a company that’s committed to dedicating resources to building community around their products. Thanks for pointing out the importance of people needing start getting involved rather than just talking about it. I’ve been enjoying my experimenting over the past year.
