Hey Everyone! Excited to share this with community...I almost studied archaeology at university, and have long been fascinated by physical relics that whisper the histories of the world. 2 years ago at a Bitcoin Conference, my friend Alice and I were up late one night and began to wonder: can you apply archaeology to the internet? How will the great virtual worlds of the past be remembered? Neopets, Club Penguin, Habbo Hotel, Second Life! Pacing furiously around our hotel room, I immediately registered a domain name, communitiesbook.com and spent the rest of the night mapping out how I could tell these great internet histories. So I interviewed 15 founders who have collectively built the most iconic community platforms on the web and compiled those interviews into a book. Today I’m excited to reveal communitiesbook.com! Visit the website to sign up to pre-order the book & begin to explore The Rise of Virtual Communities. I can’t thank the visionary founders enough who graciously shared their stories with me for this book. More to be announced next week when the book goes live on Amazon!
