Notes from a case study by Ros Coote at “Engage your community” Conference at Massey University, Wellington on 12 November 2009.
CommunityCentral is an online space for people in community and voluntary organisatiions. It has over 600 members and over 900 monthly visitors.
CommunityCentral builds communities of like-minded communities on the internet. It takes on the values of our community sector online.
How much collaboration do you do? Is it effective and is it efficient?
CommunityCentral is free. It has an e-newsletter which can be subscribed to, online forums, document sharing repositories, and project websites.
This is a federation of collaboration. There is often a link to a Ning webspace, or a pdf on another website, etc.
The terms and conditions of CommunityCentral says that they do not own your content - you do.
You do not have to belong to a community or voluntary organisation at the time to register.
