Communities/Social Networks
Tweetwarning: next tweets part of @tobydiva biz book on
social media written in Twitter. This is Ch 6 - Communities/Networks 1 #smgps
For the record, I'm Nancy White, online
interaction addict, chocoholic of Full Circle Associates http://www.fullcirc.com 2 #smgps
OK, first some term shorthand: Social
Networking=SN and Comm=Community (tweetcheats) 3 #smgps
Definition for this tweet flow:
Communities=bounded, shared interest, Soc Networks=fuzzy boundaries,
overlapping interests 4 #smgps
Humility: We have always been SNing,
just not online. The current upswing has been emerging for 20+ years. We didn't
invent it! 5 #smgps
Over time, SNing and comm life changes
as our tools and processes emerge. Look for changes in practice and tech, not
fundamentals. 6 #smgps
Biggest area of change will be how
Comms can benefit from the wider SNs in which they sit. How will we maximize
the boundaries? 7 #smgps
We'll face at least 2 SN/Comm
challenges: too many options & too many people. Sweet spot - develop tools
and practices 4 this. 8 #smgps
Good things are on the edges so look
for what happens on the edges of your Comms and SNs. Find links, patterns and
people 9 #smgps
Practice prediction: We'll use tools to
look across their SNs and Comms. Multimedia to help us make sense where volume
overwhelms 10 #smgps
Challenge: We'll struggle with personal
& professional boundaries (as we do now). We'll worry about privacy but --
too late? 11 #smgps
Hope: We will find new ways to be
together, to create, learn and produce in ways that affirm people and protect
the planet 12 #smgps
OK, now a breather. Feedback?
Augmentation to the fly by on social networks and communities in the future for
