How Online Social Networks Benefit Organizations

Return on Investment: can your community pay the bills?

http://confcenter.webcrossing.com/

What a blast this was! Thanks to WebCrossing for this! Don't be misled by the title.

Lot's of good stuff about communities of practice, Socratic dialogues, and everything else that matters on online community building.
