My Funky Building Manager

Posted by Sean Lew on Thursday, 31 July, 2008 under Collaboration, Web 2.0, social media |

I live in an apartment block in Melbourne and I have a funky building manager. He is wonderful. Recently, he “created” a web 2.0 website with a simple forum and stuck a note on the way out of the small apartment block. The uptake of the forum was amazing. Within the first day, there were about 50 hits and 3 members.

At the moment, the site is getting one or two posts a day and all the important stuff is being discussed on the site. Even with such a small community Web 2.0 is solving daily communication problems and with people’s life getting busier and work hours getting longer, this seems to be a great platform for people to manage the stuff going around their apartment even at work without meeting the building manager. This community of approx 100+ people has proven to be extremely effective, purposeful and powerful.
