- 6. Design for evolution - Communities are dynamic; change creates new demands or reshape the community. Open a dialogue between inside and outside perspectives - build on the collective experience of community members but bring external information into the dialogue about what the community could achieve. Invite different levels of participation – Accept there will be intense activists, activists and peripheral members, plus outsiders occasionally looking in. Develop both public and private community spaces Focus on value - create events, activities, and relationships that help their potential value emerge and enable them to discover new ways to harvest it. Combine familiarity and excitement - "so community members can develop the relationships they need to be well connected as well as generate the excitement they need to be fully engaged." Create a rhythm for the community - Vibrant communities have a rhythm, ideally somewhere between breathless and sluggish; the beat is likely to change as the community evolves. Communities
- 7. Exist for a reason - a community has to promote a collective goal. Users draw other users - Referrals might bring new members to the site but the community will make them return. Users will surprise you - Issues and themes you find important may never really resonate with your users. A sense of ownership - Regular users will develop a sense of community ownership which could manifest itself in positive and negative ways. You will never please all users - Remember they are in the minority. The first contribution - The easier it is to join a conversation, the more visitors will become contributors. Don't put unnecessary barriers in the way. The interface - Create an easy to use, intuitive user interface. Mischief - Plan for trouble. Set simple rules. Make them explicit. Apply them consistently. Discuss the community openly - Be honest and open about your plans as early as possible. Get feedback from the community to develop better ideas. Communities
