I wrote about a great book --- the bible, in my opinion -- of building online communities, here, written by Amy Jo Kim. I invite this community to check it out.

I definitely agree on automation. RSS feeds are a godsend, especially on the site I’m building right now.

On my blog, voice has always been a bit of a struggle, since I’m mixing my personal experience with more serious news. I sometimes find it hard to compartmentalize without just putting one type of content on one blog, another somewhere else.

I think Tips #2, #3 and #7 is very much essential building online community.
To build your online community You must “Talk like human, Not robot”.
This tips is worth more. I am going to implement these tips in my new blog site.

I like the last one, guidelines instead of rules. Rules just turn readers away.

I quite agree with most of them, but the interesting one is the last one. Often people get power crazy.

Be controversial, right? I think that’s one of your tips for bloggers and I think it it should apply in comments and online communities, too. Debating is a form of competition and competition breeds innovation . .

Thats great points, since i am planning to start a community myself..thinking about no. 3 is good food for thought as you said..

I’ve found that automating as much as possible is really important.

For instance, I moderate comments…. but I’ve got multiple spam filters and a small system tray application that alerts me nearly immediately when there are comments to moderate, which means I spend almost no time dealing with them.

The biggest chunk of my time is answering emails from readers… at least an hour or two a day.

Talk like a human and not like a robot…..this is easy if it’s a personal blog where you blog about what you think., what you found, etc. My Tips Of All Sorts blog didn’t start out on a personal note but just as another platform for displaying content but now its ever so clear that it’s that unique personal torch that draws readers back to your blog to hear what you have to say.

There are some good tips here. I have covered many of them in my community building blog. It's good to see other bloggers writing about online communities - I was starting to worry I was all alone! - Martin Reed

Points 3 and 4 are interesting. I’d really like to have a blog that feels like a community as well but it can be hard to avoid just talking ‘at’ people. If/when my blog’s big enough I’d really like to set up some kind of forum.
