Building groups is relevant now. Drupal Groups is good decision, but there are a lot of other possibilities. I prefer to use my own developments for building gropus/comminities. Great article.

And it hasn't been a secret. But i think dividing the drupal community can be a problem. Because there's no specific way of dividing on it. That's the key which brings you to the hole.<br> <a href="http://www.kuaforpazari.net">kuaför malzemeleri</a> Small groups idea sounds very effective. And it hasn’t been a secret.

Whether you are in a small business or large corporation, you have to have the small groups. I worked for an environmental engineering firm that was very effective due to the close knit network and effective use of technology. Not sure on Drupal though. Good point about community.

In the 7 years of training and advice I've helped to provide in Taxonomy, Information Architecture, and Search (and content deployed into a Portal, or through a Web Content Management system), even the most formal organizers/taxonomists (or corporate librarians, webmasters, etc.) can see the benefit of having loose and minimal ties at certain levels of the structure, rather than "pure" and rigid hierarchical structures. The addition of an escape hatch (tagging or other free-form organization) that allows the more dynamic nature of work to "flow" keeps the formal structure from breaking content creation and distribution to the point where "1.0" sites (whether public or inward-facing) find themselves, namely with DEAD sites. Providing JUST tagging (by the masses) seems to provide the same sort of disincentive that a blank wiki can provide. Nowhere to go, because nothing yet exists, and there are simply barriers that some people won't cross, namely, to be the first ones to splash the ink around.
