Community Building Resources
Enhancing Online Community Interaction: This is white paper that posits that the whole goal of community building should be about enhancing community interaction.

Incentives/Rewards for Participation in Knowledge Sharing Communities: This is a brief list of thoughts on how to reward participation in knowledge sharing communities. This is not exhaustive, so please send me thoughts if you have additional ideas.
