Social fabric is created one room at a time...



“Social aggregators that emerge from the Net when enough people carry on those public discussions long enough, with sufficient human feeling, to form webs of personal relationships in cyberspace.” (p. 5).Howard Rheingold (1993)



Connect around a cause, a community or

a concept.



Tribe: a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea.
