Guest Lecture on "Virtual Community Engines: One size fits all?"

November 9 @ The American University of Paris: I will be giving a guest lecture on "Virtual Community Engines: One size fits all?" as part of "Communautés Virtuelles, Agents intelligents", a course taught by Claudia Roda and Thierry Nabeth for the "Master Management et Ingénierie Economique" at the "Université of Marne La Vallée". Topics covered will include the difference between open communities (where half-a-billion potential web users converge to form highly focused interest groups) and closed communities (where users are invited to participate in a selective and closed community), but also the organizational effectiveness of the resulting virtual community (referencing my white paper). Of course, I will be deriving a lot of insights from past and current experiences with NetVestibule, Etheryl's commercial Virtual Community Engine and associated service.
