Great article, I totally agree as well. This is why having a community manager is an integral part of a company's marketing strategy. Your company doesn't have to be a tech company because any company that has a market also has a community to take care of.

Thanks for commenting, Alice and Jonas. I've become quite the Community Evangelist for businesses. I believe Community Managers can bridge the gap between Marketing and Public Relations.
