The Netpreneur AdMarketing list, one of the longest running Internet marketing lists and still active, is an adventure of the Morino Institute. Over the last decade, the fundamentals of community and relationship building haven\u2019t really changed. What was important then is even more important now!<\/p>\n<p>I thought it might be fun (and useful) to take a look back at this\u00a0AdMarketing conversation. At the time, we invited Internet thought-leaders\u00a0to participate in an email list discussion, focusing on interactive tools.\u00a0What transpired was a conversation among pioneers of early day Internet\u00a0community building that produced way interesting insights.\u00a0Below are several takeaways and pointers from that conversation. Looking\u00a0back, its amazing how little has changed, how relevant these lessons are\u00a0today and how important it is to do things the right way.\u00a0Read the rest of the post\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bethkanter.org\/context-is-everything-online-communities\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beth Kanter\u00a0&amp; I recently participated in a Venture Philanthropy Partners\/Leap of Reason conversation\u00a0reminiscent of a Netpreneur AdMarketing\u00a0discussion\u00a0from a dozen years ago.
