Open Vs Closed
• Open communities:– Leverage the power of the network– Need more monitoring and moderation
• Closed communities:– Difficult to grow– Less need for monitoring and moderation

Choose the Technology
• Run off your own server:– Vbulletin, phpBB, Invision Power Board
• Hosted communities:– Ning, Wikispaces, Google Groups
![Page 16: New Media Medicine: A Social Network for Doctors and MEdical Students [5 Cr3 1100 Paton]](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070313/5549308cb4c9054c498c35c2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Running your own server
• Expensive
• Need to have dedicated server management team (24/7/365)
• May need more than one server
• More customisable

Hosted service
• Ning, Wikispaces, Google Groups• Lots of different types of service• Ning seems to be best for building communities• No need for server management (or any knowledge of
servers at all!)• Not so customisable• Ownership?

Managing a community
• Online communities are composed of real people!
• Need to foster a sense of community spirit with rules for what is an isn’t acceptable
• Keep to the forum rules (no exceptions)• Recruit moderators from within the community• Moderators should be calm, rational people!

Example Problems
• Users arguing with each other• Moderators disagreeing about a course of action• Copyrighted material posted• Libellous material posted• Key is consistency and hard work
