Why listen to this podcast: • A community comes together around a common shared interest of some sort • Communities need to be actively nurtured in a similar way to open source projects • Communities require constant tuning, and this means you need to figure out ways to measure them • Different types of content work for different members of the community and in different contexts – ensure your content matches the intent • “Collecting data is only the first step towards wisdom, sharing data is the first step towards community” More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ https://bit.ly/3asqUtV You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: https://bit.ly/3asqUtV
