This is pretty essential viewing, giving people some context on how online communities have developed. And no, it's not just a Web 2.0 thing:
I was trying to work out the other day how long I'd been participating in virtual communities of various sorts, I think the answer is "13 years", starting with a mailing list for a game back in 1995. This is a topic I ought to revisit. I might even explain how I became the Ashtray on the Edge of Oblivion.
But then again, maybe not.
