You CAN Build a Community Around Filling a Job

by carolross

I love how the world works. Ask a question and the answer appears.

This morning, I received an email that I had a new follower on Twitter.  (BTW--If you haven't given Twitter a try, give it two weeks of your time and attention, follow a wide variety of people, and see what happens. It's networking on steroids--both in quickness and number of new, relevant connections.)

IslandcaretakerThe new follower, Susie Parish (Twitter name: @susieparish), has on her Twitter bio: "creator of an online community site for Best Job in the World applicants."

Going to Susie's social networking site, the welcome reads, "A 60 second video was not enough to be able to really share who you are and what you've done in order to be qualified for the Best Job in the World! Join this community to share more about yourself, learn more about other fellow island-caretaker wannabes, and connect with each other to have fun with this dream job opportunity."

How cool is that?

So what do you want to build a community around? And what's the bigger voice that you want to engage others in?
