I wonder if this ties to some of the comments made in the measuring community session where a number of the participants (YouTube, Google, LinkedIn) all mentioned finding ways to measure and engage the 9-percenters. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess the real question here is can you really grow the 1-percenters or does the community grow more through the natural turn-over and back-fill of that group?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">milessims</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 23 Jun 2008 22:56:43 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The evolution of the community &amp;#8220;industry&amp;#8221;</title><link>http://www.communityguy.com/1669/the-evolution-of-the-community-industry/#comment-729859</link><description>Why/how are they pushed out?

Definitely a "do no try this at home" move.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jakemckee</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 23 Jun 2008 00:17:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The evolution of the community &amp;#8220;industry&amp;#8221;</title><link>http://www.communityguy.com/1669/the-evolution-of-the-community-industry/#comment-728408</link><description>That's really interesting .. as we know that 1% do all the talking.  It's very brave to push out half of them to create a vacuum.
