These slides were for "27 (Fun!) Ways to Kill Your Online Community," a solo presentation I delivered at South by Southwest Interactive 2011 on March 13 in Salon K at the Hilton in Austin, TX. As part of the presentation, I discussed 27 ways, beliefs and tactics that would help you to kill your online community as quickly as possible. You could always take these thoughts and do the opposite and not kill your community, but why would you want to do that?

Notes de l'éditeur
- Don’t link them to the answer, whatever you do.How could they not comb through those hundreds of pages of search results? Link them to a page that tells them how to ask a question! Link them to the search page. Google is your friend.
- Repeat after me… that’s something you never thought you’d hear at SXSW.Members have no idea what they’re talking about.If any memberoffers feedback, tell them to shut up and “get back to the post factory.”Listening makes them feel like they matter.Of course, if that doesn’t work, there’s always…
- One of those perfect ones.Soon enough, the community looks like a pile of garbage.Discretion.Either extreme can kill a community.
- Make the site look different everyday! Make people think they have arrived at the wrong website!Things change, but not every day and without announcement.
