I just started reading the book, Managing Online Forums: Everything You Need to Know to Create and Run Successful Community Discussion Boards and the author provided a link to his website, so I thought I would pass it along: http://www.managingonlineforums.com/. I have a music-related website, www.nurturemusic.biz, which is an online forum of sorts, so this is why I am particularly interested in the topic. As I learn more from this book I may be sharing other information here.
