community

Community is a real buzz word, biased bloggers and journalists, and advertisers throw it around like a hot potato. It brings them a lot of money, but they dont really know what it means. I really dont think any of us have a clear view of what it mean, me being a part of that crowd. I mean the word gets thrown around like OJ Simpsons court trial.

Community: agreement as to goals. Simple as that. I don’t consider facebook a community, or myspace or any other form of web connection. are we a community as soon s someone posts a video of themselves or a status so we can see what they are doing? i think facebook i sa communtiy barrier..where do we draw the line of separation between actually having a community and an organized web based page. My best example of a community to you is this: have you ever been to a reds game? or even your own high school football/basketball game and one of the players just scores and the crowd goes nuts!!! 20,000 people cheering for the same team you are. and as you are walking out of the stadium some random person looks at you and says “good game.” thats community. A group of people getting together with common interests and one belief. This isnt about me, i can inflate my ego on my own time. This is about us getting together to do something great/powerful/moving and worthwhile. This is our future? what should we do with it? post a comment or video sharing our thoughts or act on those thoughts? you tell me
