The Annenberg Program on Online Communities (APOC) was represented at the 2008 Convergence and Society conference at the University of South Carolina (aka, “the other USC”). Conference organizer Augie Grant wisely selected the topic of “The Participatory Web.” Many presentations throughout the conference were peppered with references to online communities. I presented the APOC curriculum, teaching methodologies, and overall perspective. The feedback I received reinforced my perspective that our program uniquely considers online communities as more of an entrepreneurial venture, and our close relationships with industry place us on the leading edge.
