Patrick O'Keefe, Owner/Founder, iFroggy Network and Author, "Managing Online Forums"

Description:

Managing an online community is a challenge. What do you, as administrator, need to be equipped with? We’re not talking technology, we’re talking you as a person. What do you need to know, be ready for and what common pitfalls can you avoid?

Would love to sit in on this panel!
-Kate Kotler, Content & Community Manater for Meez.com

Yes! A panel for forum communities that addresses administration on a personal level. -Janice, Owner/Administrator Specktra.net - Community & Marketing Manager @ EscalateMedia.com

Dear Ms. Kotler and Ms. James,

Thank you for your interest and the kind words! :)

I just wanted to noted that I will be joined by both Martin Reed of Community Spark and April Burba, the Associate Producer of Dungeon Runners, an MMORPG from NCsoft and the former Community Manager for Tabula Rasa and City of Heroes, also MMORPGs from NCsoft.

I appreciate any and all interest in this panel!

Thanks,

Patrick

i think this panel would make interesting reading
after all we could all do with a little help on making our communitys
better not only for us but for our members which is the most important thing.

Thanks for the comment, Dave. I'm glad that you like the idea.

Thanks for all the support. I really hope this panel gets chosen - I think that it would be extremely useful and relevant not only for those actively developing communities, but also those looking to leverage the power of community to strengthen and enhance their brand.

Great information..

Great Article
