		<description><![CDATA[&gt;..&quot;what it means to &#039;manage&#039; a community&quot;

A trillion dollar question!

IMHO, you never &#039;manage&#039; a comunity (those who think they do, just don&#039;t get it). Tomi Ahonen and Alan Moore brilliantly define it in the very title of their book &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Communities-Dominate-Brands-Tomi-Ahonen/dp/0954432738/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-1797664-8438055?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1198279834&amp;sr=8-1&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&#039;Communities Dominate Brands&#039;&lt;/a&gt;.

At best, a smart business can &lt;i&gt;facilitate&lt;/i&gt; andhope to guide the self-management of communities, one of theirinherent aspects.

But who am I to know?]]></description>
