Once a community forms, then its up to the community on how it works. So it might be that there is a single focus of the community (think David Koresh) or that the individual is most important (think of an artist commune - it exists to allow individuals to become better artists through sharing). In most communities, it is somewhere in between (take a basketball team for example), and its in that balance, where most of the potential dangers to the growth of the community lie. we're talking about roadblocks to joining a community.

How much should those already in a community focus to be sure that the needs of each individual are best met to keep them working well? (I'm thinking of my Small Learning Community at school here...) I guess the question is, what makes a roadblock a true roadblock, and what makes it a unifying challenge? Ok, so where is the space for the individual within a community?

not quitting blogging, just can't find the time or the stuff I want to write about (cant blog workstuff due to either NDA or stealth-mode work, tired of social-this-that-the-other-thing – completely digging what you have been writing lately).

Gonna get my groove back after BlogHer – it was very inspiring
