Hurst Associates, Ltd. Is In-World Enough?

Hurst Associates, Ltd. Guiding Principles for Online Communities Software that promotes good discussion. People who are willing to discuss and share information. Discussions that can be of any length and that can easily include pointers to additional information. Conversations can be kept for future reference, if necessary.

Hurst Associates, Ltd. The ability for the community to set its own rules. A place where the memory of the group can be stored (institutional memory). The ability to promote – and ensure – safety, privacy and confidentiality. The capacity to handle crises by the community pulling together to help.

Hurst Associates, Ltd. Result: Distributed Communities Can’t rely solely on a MUVE –Limited communication options Need other tools – & discussion lists –Social networking sites (e.g., Ning) –Blogs, wikis, photo-sharing, etc.
